@Mrfants I've shot a grand total of 2 deer in 2 1/2 years, 1 on a farm and 1 in the bush.
I got really excited by the doc deer. I thought "now I'm a real hunter". But that was the adrenaline talking. I went from seeing nothing for months, to seeing 3 and shooting 1. I've not seen anything for 9 months since t that first doc deer, and that's going out most weekends. My conclusion is that I got lucky once, and I need to hunt different areas.
I love hunting, but not so good at finding! But I enjoy being in the bush, it's my happy place, so my lack of success isn't getting me down.
Take the pressure off yourself - Let go of the need to get something and enjoy your time in the bush. It worked for me.
Oh, and go after goats a bit. They're pretty easy and teach you butchery skills for when you land that elusive first![]()
