Faith Jackson+FollowNew Hunter Fails We’ve All MadeEvery new hunter thinks they’re ready—until they spook every deer in the county. Forgetting about scent control, overestimating your aim, and picking the comfiest (but worst) spot? Guilty. If you’re new to the woods, you’re probably making at least half these rookie mistakes. Don’t sweat it—everyone learns the hard way. Want to actually see a deer this season?

paulcarol+FollowThis public land hunter tried to steal my deer after I shot itPicture this: I'm set up perfectly in my favorite spot, hour before sunrise. Then a UTV comes blazing through, ruining everything. But it gets worse. As I'm packing up, a nice 3-point walks out. Clean shoulder shot, saw him stumble and run toward where that UTV went. Minutes later, I hear rapid semi-auto fire. Found the guy standing over MY deer - now riddled with gut shots. When I politely mentioned I'd shot it first, he squared up and started yelling it was his kill. The broken leg and my bullet hole on the opposite side told a different story. I just congratulated him and walked away laughing. Enjoyed watching him try to clean those gut shots. Got a bigger buck in the same spot the next day anyway. Sometimes the best revenge is just letting karma handle things, you know? #Hunting #publicland #deerhunting #deerseason10741Share
