IMHO, We as hunters make deer hunting ALOT harder than it really is.
I know i'm a lil (or maybe alot older) than most here and have hunted w/ the old guys b4 me that never wore camo , never worried about scent blocker , smoked on the stand etc.etc.
They made sure that their bullet hit where they aimed and they learned where and when the deer would be.
Most of them could move thru the woods w/o being heard and they knew
more about the woods than i'll ever learn.
I miss them guys and their ways.
Some that sounds like how I started out Deer hunting. I did not own any camo the first 3 or 4 years that I hunted. I just took out some blue jeans and either a green or brown looking shirt depending on what the leaves on the trees looked like. If it was cold, I would put on the long johns and my one coat that I wore all the time.

Sent control.....never heard of doing something special about that and still killed a few deer each year. Maybe I did not put on aftershave lotion to go hunting.

I grew up hunting squirrels and rabbits by sneeking up on them to get close enough to shoot them with a 22. Slow stalking is one of my favorite ways to hunt deer.....when the conditions are right.
