bushjill+FollowWhere do you shoot a deer to save the most meat?Just behind the shoulder = perfect lung/heart shot AND preserves the most venison! Been my go-to for years. Quick, ethical kills without sacrificing meat quality. Where do you aim for your shots? #hunting #deerhunting32Share
mmoore+FollowHow long do deer live without hunters? 😮Just learned the oldest wild whitetail on record lived to 24 years old - that's ancient in deer years! Most wild deer only live a few years due to predators, traffic, disease, and hunting pressure. Makes me wonder how many would reach old age without all those threats.🤔 #hunting #deerfacts #wildlife #nature63Share
jortiz+Followyour support hand position is probably wrongStruggling with rifle stability in the field? Your left hand placement on the barrel makes or breaks your hunting shot. Too far forward and your muscles do all the work - hello shaky aim on that buck. Too close and you lose recoil control. Find that sweet spot where your bones support the weight and muscles just fine-tune. Takes practice but game-changer for field accuracy. What's your go-to hunting position? #hunting #shootingtips #rifletraining 20Share
Eric Ford+Followwhen deer see you best during the day?Always heard deer eyesight peaks at dawn and dusk - is this actually true? Always felt like they catch every little move during those hours. What’s your take? #hunting #deerhunting #wildlifetips 90Share
Eric Ford+Followbuilding my first deer blind from scrap woodGot a pile of leftover lumber sitting around and thinking about building my own deer blind this season instead of buying one. Has anyone here DIY'd their own? Looking for tips on dimensions, window placement, or any mistakes to avoid. Worth the effort? #hunting #deerhunting #deerblind 117Share
paulcarol+Followwhy hunters lose deer they should have foundAfter you shoot, pick a specific landmark where you last saw the deer - "that pine with the broken branch" not just "over there." Everything looks different from ground level and you'll be way off track otherwise. Then wait 1-2 hours before tracking. I've watched too many hunters rush down and push wounded deer for miles. Patience saves more deer than anything else. What's your worst tracking story? #hunting #deerhunting #huntingtips #outdoors5853Share
Manuel Bright+Followthis spot produces turkeys 90% of the timeNew to public land? Skip the fancy scouting and head straight to water sources - creeks, ponds, rivers. Turkeys need water daily and these spots are wildlife magnets. It's the most reliable pattern I've found for locating birds fast. Works every single time. #hunting #turkeyhunting #publicland #huntingtips #outdoors486Share
bushjill+Followold trapper taught me this coyote secretSetting coyote traps isn't just about placement - you need the right attractant to bring them to that exact spot. I use a combo of beaver castor, fox urine, and curiosity scents at each set. You can buy commercial baits or make your own with a meat grinder and deer scraps. The key is using multiple attractants so any coyote passing by will investigate. What's your go-to bait recipe? #hunting #coyotetrapping #trappingtips #outdoors5841Share
tyler79+Followscent control products are a total scam!Unpopular opinion: the hunting industry convinced us we need $300 worth of scent eliminators when wind direction and basic hygiene work just fine. Grandpa never used any of this stuff and still outshot us all. Change my mind. #hunting #deerhunting #scentcontrol #huntinggear16110Share
