Need Some Help!!!!
Hey Guys, it's day two of my deer hunt and still nothing to show for all the scouting and endless foot work I did to prepare for this hunt. It isn't like we haven't seen any deer, but we can't seem to find any shooters. Heck, we're not even looking for "Booners", but the only bucks we have found are small forks and you need at least 3points on one side here in NM. We've found lots of sign, some fresh beds and lots of trails, but still no bucks. Need some advice.......................

Good luck and hopefully someone else here will be able to help ya out!
How many are in your party?
The way we have GREAT success is to drive the deer to a shooter positioned ahead. Sit someone in a desired location and everyone push to them. Some of the bigger bucks will not be seen and slip away without being seen unless you do this.
If you have enough people, try doing a DRIVE. ???
Good luck, sounds like some tough hunting so far. :)
But hey it's still hunting!
