Still new at hunting

[toyotagirl]

I'm 5 years into hunting and was curious to point me in
A direction to a good region. I still have yet to proceses a buck or doe for my freezer, I still have enjoyed learning and being out in the Bush. I've road hunted and hiked, followed tracks.

Thank you in advance for any information and help muchly appreciated.

If you ever head to region 4 could give you some spots to check out.

I have nothing constructive to add other than to say I am also a new hunter with multiple seasons of tag soup under my belt. I feel your pain. Persistence pays off eventually... Hopefully

Go to spots you’ve seen sign. If you see does you might see a buck

deer like the edge that is were two different areas come together like grass meets forest or cut blocks and timber.scout those areas and look for sign such as trails and droppings.deer like ridges come in on the down wind side and glass the trees in the distance move slow and stop for breaks and glass some more one step can open up a lot sight lines.keep your scope on low power and be ready things happen when you dont expect it.

I’m not an expert but here’s my 2 cents. Generally speaking, a good portion of the hunting season is over but there’s is still time to get a deer if you’ve got time to put in. Your could focus on regions close enough to travel to which still offer good opportunity. Right now I would probably focus on WT in either region 8 or 4. Focus on winter range as the deer should be moving there. Have a plan for the animal (butcher or coolers) if you are successful. Good luck!

im going to confidently say you are wrong. The deer hunting is JUST getting started. November 10-Dec 10 is the cats meow!

unless you’re trying to hunt the any buck any WT season but don’t limit yourself, we see substantially more animals in November than October, though a lot of our tags get filled in October just because we enjoy poor mans elk AKA white tail.

Can confirm.
And don't stress about getting out first thing, especially now with the rut. The biggest animals I have either witnessed taken or taken myself have all been in the mid morning to late evening. Averaging in the mid afternoon. I'm talking big bodied 4-5 point mulies, 3-4 point whitetails and huge bears.
Following tracks is really only useful in fresh snow.

Other than that, best of luck, and remember, they don't call it "hunting" for nothing!
