General Hunting

Be proficient with your weapon of choice. It doesn’t matter whether it's a bow, rifle, or a muzzleloader, practice OFTEN! Take pride in your marksmanship. You will become a more confident hunter. A confident hunter is a better hunter. Improve your marksmanship. (it doesn’t matter how good we already are, we can always improve). It will make for a more successful hunt. Practice, practice, practice!

When bowhunting in remote places, always carry an extra bow string and portable bow press. Excellent and inexpensive portable bow presses can be purchased at Cabela's or through their catalog. The extra string should be set up exactly like the one on your hunting bow. In an emergency, this extra string may actually save your hunt, and keep you from wasting the hard-earned money you spent on the trip.
