    New to the Site!

    Hey everyone! Been browsing the forum for awhile and decided to join. Im 22 yrs. old and new to bow hunting. I bought a compound and love it. This archery season has been my first and it has had ups and downs. I have private permission and its a nice property. Made some bad shots and bad decisions on stand locations that have haunted me all season. I want to fill a tag and am crazy enough to spend late season trying to accomplish that. I want to wait till after Christmas to get back it it due to the pressure of gun season. What is some tips to a novice on late season bow? Whats the key to success?

    89 tracker about covered it. Late season is about food. Find what they are eating and they will be back

    Find the Food! then the trick is figuring out when the deer are moving. Deer where I hunt move at weird times during the late season. Sometimes varying from day to day. so if you can figure out the best times to be on stand it'll be a big help! I'm not sure even the toughest of hunters can stay in the stand very long with the temps we've been having lately!

    Good Luck!

    and welcome to the site

    Welcome. Did anyone say food?
    I have strong opinions about God, Guns, Guitars and Harley Davidsons, I can remain open minded about everything else.
