Hello. I am a new hunter and I have paid quiet a few $$$ to hunt on many lands to learn there was no animals and wasted my money. I live in Dallas, TX and would like to hunt on a land till I get a Doe. I am a new hunter and might very well miss a shot or may get it. I would like to exchange my services such as building you a website or doing some technical work for you in return for a Doe (Female Deer). Please dont post any discouraging words. Thank you.

You go to the range first and learn to shoot. I'm not going to put a poor shooter in a blind to maim a doe. I doubt anybody else will either.

Not an attack on you, just a thought.

It would be best to spend some time on the range. practice at different yardages, and different positions like you may encounter in the field. Most outfitters will not put a shooter on their land that may only wound an animal. Once you feel you can make a ill shot try your luck with some hogs. If a hog is injured, it is not as ethical, but not as big of a deal. Then once you are SURE you can make kill shots. then you can upgrade to deer.

Sir-

You need to realize many ranch owners care very much about their wildlife. When you clearly indicate that you don't have confidence in your shooting it raises red flags. Addiotionslly, it implies a lack of respect for the animal's life, even if you didn't mean it that way. This adds up to you hurting your chances of someone taking you up on your offer.

Learning to shoot accurately should be a pre-requisite to hunting. I would recommend you spend this off season to build your shooting skills so that by next season you can confidently make this same offer. You can do this on your own, and have a lot of fun doing so. You should also definitely take your Hunter's Education course if you haven't done so yet.

It seems that the question you should be asking is for someone to teach you to shoot. Sorry to burst your bubble and meaning no disrespect, but with a post like yours, you would not be coming on my land anytime soon.

Something's been lost in the op's translation here. Not trying to be discouraging at all.'Just worded very strangely.

I am VERY VERY HAPPY to see that most (almost all) of you are ethical people. You are all concerned about injuring the animal and that is A BIG CONCERN of mine too. That is why I prefer to hunt in a private ranch first (preferably Mgmt Deer) because I know that it will not runaway where I cannot find it & possibly get help. Again, it has NEVER happened that I shot and injured an animal and it ran away. I may be underestimating myself for my shooting skills. The one deer I shot I shot it close to the heart but it went another property and died but died in 4 minutes. (just yesterday).

So, let me clarify what I am saying. I am not trying to "kill" nor trying to be trigger happy. smile I am trying to hunt and hunt for meat. I, personally, am against hunting only for trophy so I got respect for the animal. When I say I "may" miss is because I am not used to hunting from sitting in a blind. When I was in a blind, I had a hard time aiming and I had to let the deer go and not shoot. The shot I made was from Tree Stand where I was able to have more room and stand at time too. I have spent 100's of dollars running from land to land responding to Craigslist ad and not finding any deer. Thus, I dont want to pay any more $$$ and want to offer services in return for hunt. Once again, THANK YOU EVERYONE for showing support for the animal and encouraging me as well. I appreciate it. I want someone to tutor me or guide me in hunting and I see some of you have made that offer. So, thanks again.

Amer

I didnt take that as a disrespect. Wish everyone thought like you. I did mention to someones ad on Craigslist for Deer hunt and I stating I am new & requested a discount if I miss the hit. They said "You need to start somewhere" and they recommended to keep shooting wherever and at whatever till u get it down. LoL. Yes, I have Hunters Ed course and Hunting license in TX. I am assuming y'all had a parent or a closed one who taught you how to shoot. I have no one really to teach me. So, you need to see where I am coming from. I sat in 300 acre land by myself because I was motivated yet couldnt find anyone else to take with me who had 'hunting license'. Thanks.

Thank you M Bennett. I would love to do that. As mentioned, I have no family member or any one close to me who is a hunter. I am all self taught. That is why I am being open minded and taking everyones feedback well without any egos. I will call you and we can work something out. Thanks for the offer. I dont even mind being put on a pig. LoL...

Growing up, living in the suburbs, it was a 40 minute drive to go to a family friend's undeveloped land to target shoot. Nobody hunted. Fast forward many years and it wasn't until three years ago that I had somebody to hunt with. I haven't hunted much longer than that. Point is, I am "self-taught" with regards to hunting, not target shooting. I come here to learn. There are a lot of smart people with lots and lots of experience that are willing to share. As for having somebody to hunt with, while it is nice to have the option at times, I most often prefer to go by myself.

Good luck to you.

Run away where you can't find it.....?

"I, personally, am against hunting only for trophy so I got respect for the animal."
What are you trying to say there? Sounds like your saying that you think only meat hunters have respect for the animal.



Just because you may do a hunt in a high fence doesn't mean you will find it if you wound it. Yeah you can find it a few days later after vultures show you where it's at. But many people seem to think that fence means a guarantee. It's just not that simple.

Take a few of the guys up on their offer to take you out and show you how to put it in the kill zone and track an animal.

If you were near me I wouldn't mind taking you out and showing you a few basics. I can tell your new and concerned. I wish more would express that as honestly because I have have been down the road with first time hunters before and it can be challenging sometimes just teaching them patience and basics.

Even if you get the opportunity to go squirrel hunting some place with a fella, do it. Take every chance you get to do any kind of hunt and not just now hunt, until you feel very confident you know what your doing.

Everyone is going to wound something sooner or later. Learning that you did that and what to do when it happens is a little different each time. Always be patient, not just while your waiting for the animal to show.
