I usually set my blind between feeding and bedding areas, making sure to have shooting lanes cleared. It’s all about positioning!
Great advice! Do you think wind direction plays a role in your success rate?
Definitely! You need to pay attention to wind direction so that you don’t alert the deer. A good setup can make all the difference.
I once spooked a whole herd because I didn’t check the wind. Now it’s my top priority when hunting!

I once saw a huge buck run in after my rattling! It was exhilarating but ended with an empty tag. Still, the thrill was worth it!
I think rattling is overrated. Sometimes less noise is more. Switched to soft grunts that worked marvelous for me!
That’s an interesting take! What led you to switch from rattling to grunting?
