So my sons and I were lucky enough to draw first rifle in Unit 32 and we're really looking forward to it.
I've been reading up all I can and it sounds like that unit gets quite a bit of pressure on (what sounds like) not a really large deer population so we're not expecting anything to be handed to us, but that being said we're hoping to get some sound advice on how to not step on too many toes on what promises to be a congested hunt.
Advice we've rcvd from the local game officials seems to be to:
Get off the roads.
Show up early, and stay late.
So we plan on doing a lot of walking.
Aside from the obvious safety protocols to follow and doing our best to try and give anyone we see a wide berth, anyone have any obvious suggestions for "do's and don'ts"?
This post was largely inspired by the post currently going around under "General Hunting" about a lack of courtesy, so I'm keeping a close eye there and taking those comments to heart.
Cheers and GL to all my fellow public land hunters out there.
