Deer

Deer Or No Deer When I was younger I sat in a deer stand with my dad. I started at the age of nine and I loved it. Every day during deer camp I woke up early to walk out to the field with him. We would get up around 4 or 5 in the morning. I always lite a fire in the fireplace to get rid of the chill in the cool morning air. Then I would get dressed up for the cold weather to come and prepare for the great hunt we were about to receive. I could not shoot a deer legally I was twelve. Once I could legally harvest a deer, I couldn't wait for the season to start. I was so excited when I finally got the chance to take hunter's safety class online. I passed my written test and went to take the field test that you must attend to receive your certificate. During the field test I had to carry a…

One of my most important personal goals is to shoot a deer with my bow. Preferably a buck but either with do. I’ve always wanted to, but now I’m ready to do it, and put lots of time in so I can achieve that goal. It’s not always easy to get a deer with a bow because most of the time the deer don’t come close enough. This year I’m going to prepare and plan out how to get a nice deer with my bow. One way I’m going to get a nice shot is to put out trail cams and see where the deer are moving.…

Since the dawn of time, humans have practiced the right to hunt whitetail deer to control the deer’s population growth rate. However, animal rights groups and pacifists alike are trying to take that right away from the American people. Not only does hunting have an enormous impact on the American lifestyle, but also gives the common people (including myself) a chance to observe and help maintain the wildlife and its environment. Recently, those opposed to this idea have started to conduct…

populations of white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus), have been steadily increasing. This increase in population has caused many people to consider various ways to keep the deer populations in control (Brown et al. 2000). Despite record harvest rates and many unrestricted hunting laws, white-tailed deer are very abundant in many regions of the United States (Rawinski 2008). For example, the range of the white-tailed deer has expanded to include offshore islands, such as Block Island, RI,…

A deer is known to have many traits, like gentleness and acrobaticness. I could be considered having both. I also feel connected to deer somehow, especially with our 3-legged deer around my house. It is such a coincidence that my birthday is in early June, which is the deer month. It is cool how accurate this is! Some of the traits the deer spirit animal is known to have are gentleness, acrobaticness, gracefulness, and musical. I always try to have a smile on my face. I am known to have gentle…

With my arms on my knees and my head on my arms, my dad tapped my arm three times. He whispers with excitement in his voice. “Hey, hey Molly. I saw some movement.” I lift my head up and look to see if there was a deer. “Just wait.” His voice said again. A small doe started to walk in from the left. There were some trees in the way so I didn’t really see it at first. It took some slow long steps toward the bait pile. She put her head down and started eating corn. She lifted her head up to look to…

How to Deer Hunt Deer hunting can be considered a method of survival to obtain food and warm clothing or as a sport. Although deer hunting is typically considered a sport and rarely used for food nowadays in the United States, throughout history hunting has been used for clothing and food. “Deer were an integral part of Native American’s lives. Meat and bone marrow made up a large part of their diet. Indians used hides for clothing, rugs, blankets, fishnets, and tools out of bones. They crafted…

Are you a big game hunter? Well, if so then I can help you with the basics of how to butcher a deer. Now I don’t know everything there is to know about this, but I have plenty of experience. Many people don't like venison because of the "wild" taste. If your deer is properly killed, field dressed, aged, butchered and cooked, you will have a steak or roast that is to die for. If your family or guests don't like such venison, they don't like meat. First things first in order to do this delegate…
