My biggest deer

I shot my biggest deer the third time i went hunting for deer. I left with a muzzle loader witch has iron sites and you only get one shot to hit the deer because it takes so long to reload. since i had a muzzle loader and i was hunting in a brand new area that i new nothing about i knew it was going to be a bit harder than my last hunting trips. I say that because any animal you hunt has a pattern that they follow. some people will argue with you if you say that but, i believe it because i know exactly where to find the deer in an area that i have already hunted. That's the hard part about hunting in a new area, you have to find the pattern they follow.

Anyway, back to my story my dad and uncle were the only ones out there i had a tag for both a deer and an elk. the whole time we were up there we saw hundreds of doe everywhere. no bucks or elk tho. Finally after a wile of hunting we were passing a spring that we saw and there was a herd of elk in there. my uncle stoped the truck and my dad and i got out and stared a sneak. well my dads pants got snagged and that spooked the elk so they ran and we didn't even get a shot off. that same day headed back to camp that night my uncle almost hit a deer that ran right out in front of us and all hes said is holy shit shoot. so i pointed my gun out the window and shot the deer it jumped up and ran a little ways but fell down. We got flashlights and went looking, after a wile we found him in a dried river bed 100 yards away from the road. he was a beautiful 5 4 not including the cheaters or eye guards.

My Grandfather

I'm going to tell you about how I learned all these things about thee wilderness. Some of you may think that I'm full of it, but I know what I'm talking about. My grandpa was the man who took me out to learn all of what I know about the wild, the key word there was took, I didn't learn from books I learned from experience. My grandpa jumped off a cruse ship into the Atlantic ocean, he was feeling very sick and he was a stubborn man so there was no getting him to the doctor. I was crushed it only happened a year ago and I don't like to talk about it, but hes the reason that I'm able to blog about something that matters, and may help people in life. He was an old bastard who did whatever he felt like, but he forgot more about the wild than most people even know in the first place. I was lucky enough that he decided to pass it all down to me.

The most I learned from a trip that we took was going to Alaska, there are many thing that you need to know when travelling in unfamiliar areas, the first I would recommend is to get your directions North, South, East, West down to a tee. Do a little research on where there the towns big or little and about how far away they are from each other. Lastly the direction of the town from each other. Make sure that you take a reliable weapon that you know will work. People recommend bear spray, F that I personally wouldn't trust my life to a can. Do what you want, but I'm taking a big gun.

 Don't carry food that will spoil take dried fruits and as many small things you can eat that will give you lots of energy. Study the plants that you will find in the local area because plats are very use full. You can eat them or use them for medicine if you need to. The last peace of advice to you now is to take a satellite phone in case your cellphone is out of service. That way you can call for help and it should even display your location. I always watch bear grillzs before going out into the wild because he knows what hes talking about and explains how and what to do in certain situations.

Wildlife

The minute that you stop respecting wildlife and what they are capable of is when you will get hurt. That's why "accidents" happen, because some people are retarded and don't know what their doing in the wild. Before going out into the wild you should make sure that you are prepared for anything that could happen. you might want to research the area you are going to and find out the different kinds of animals and plant so if you do get into trouble you will have a larger chance of surviving.

When going into the wild make sure that you have some sort of deterrent to fend off predators. Most people take bear spray of some humane crap, but if you want to trust your life to a spray can be my guest. Me on the other hand wont go into the unknown with out a few reliable guns and a whole lot of ammo. Once you have protection you need some sort of shelter to keep you out of the weather. i would recommend a cabin like tent they are expensive, but you can stay warm and it's hard to tear down. lastly just have extra food in case you cant find any, but ration for longer use.
