Kentucky Bowhunting:
Because a bowhunter must be
able to get within range of the deer, turkey, hog or whatever is
being hunted, the hunter must take very special care in planning
the hunt. The illusive Whitetail Deer has amazing senses
of smell, hearing and sight and will know you are there unless
you have made special precautions to cover your scent, become
invisible, and be VERY QUIET. If you get good enough to be
in range of a whitetail deer, then other game should not be
quite so challenging.
A successful Kentucky bowhunt starts
with daily habits you may not have thought about. First,
address the phenomenal ability of a whitetail deer to 'wind' a
human. NO SMOKING, and some people even avoid coffee prior
to a bow hunt. What are you washing your hunting clothes
in? Is your deodorant scented? Do your hunting
boots, well, smell like hunting boots? What did you eat
for breakfast at camp (Hopefully nobody decided to cook bacon
for breakfast!) Perfumed washing powder, scented shampoos
and soaps can be a killer for your bow hunt. In addition
to covering your scent, there are hundreds of products designed
to attract the trophy to your area. Find out what works
best for the time of year you are planning your hunt.
Doe pee might not be so effective if you are not hunting during
the rut.
Next, think about being invisible. The camo clothes
manufactures have made this much easier than it used to be.
Primarily consider what your hunting environment and habitat
are, and then plan accordingly. Rid yourself of shiny or
reflective areas on your equipment. Wear camo hats
and face masks. The more you blend with the habitat around
you, the more chance of a successful bowhunt. If you are
using a tree stand, make sure the placement is well-planned to
be out of sight, yet in a game traffic area.
Lastly, practice being very quiet not only getting to your
stand, but also during the hunt. Use quiet equipment,
soft, quiet clothing, walk quietly, wear quiet footgear, and get
good at moving to your hunting area very early and very quietly.
If you suffer with allergies, make sure you take an
antihistamine before your hunt. It'd be a shame to spot a
nice trophy deer just in time to start a sneezing attack!
In addition to being quiet, also learn the techniques of calling
deer with calls or horn rattling. Your pro Kentucky
bowhunting guide knows what techniques work best for the deer in
their area.
Even taking these kinds of hunting precautions won't promise
a trophy buck, but your chances increase as your skills improve!
Bowhunting can be very rewarding, precisely because of the
skill, hard work and planning that go into a successful bow
hunt.
