A year of lockdown has everyone ready to hit the field, but the good news is you don’t have to wait until fall. Here are five hunts you can enjoy this spring without breaking the bank.
Be their tails white or black, be they donkey-eared with wide crowns or basket-racked desert dwellers, the pursuit of deer across this land is as American as it gets. Here’s a look at the new gear that will get you there, keep you there and, we hope, return home stained a little red.
Do you know a family member, friend or neighbor who may consider joining the hunt? Here’s a long list of reasons that may convince them to do so. Pick the one that fills the bill then watch the drive to hunt kick in after the pursuit begins.
While searching for a big buck’s discarded headgear this spring, you can accomplish other missions in your deer-hunting woods. Shed hunts can also be used for trail-cam updates, treestand maintenance, herd and habitat inventory and even a “bedroom check” of the deer population’s most tight-knit haunts.
