Fallow Deer Hunting 101 Tips & Tricks Aussie John Gold Coast
There will be regular updates with a new Fallow Deer 101 Tip for taking a Trophy Buck.
Tip 1:
Read all you can about Fallow Deer. Research via the internet. Hear the vocal sounds of Fallow Deer on the B.G.H.A menu above. Study Fallow Deer at a Deer Farm or local Zoo, watch what they do, their shape and size. Look at the way they blend in to their back ground.

Tip 2:
I use scent free body soap like Hunter's Specialties® Scent-A-Way...and scent free shampoo like - NEW Dead Down Wind® e2 ScentPrevent® Body & Shampoo
I wash all my hunting cloths in Dead Down Wind® e1 ScentPrevent® with UVe Laundry Detergent. I store all my hunting cloths in a scent free plastic bag with a scented wafer of fresh earth smell named - Hunter's Specialties® H.S. Scents™ Primetime™ Fresh Earth Cover Scent. (available at Basspro On-line).
I don't smoke (cigarettes or a pipe) and I don't stand around a fire with my hunting cloths on, I don't cook in my hunting cloths... that way I keep them as scent free as possible.

Tip 3:
I like camo clothing. Stoney Creek makes quality QUIET camo or green hunting apparel. I use a face mask in green camo or black. I use mesh camo hand gloves...the less white you show the better.

When you understand what deer see or sense the human threat...
When deer detect a potential threat all of their senses are directed toward that area of concern.
The deer assumes what is called a stereotypic alert posture. This posture includes the cocking forward of both ears and erection of the hair, particularly along the back. The deer is then immediately prepared to either fight or flee. At this time, much the same as in humans, adrenaline is released, which prepares the animal to most efficiently react to the situation. Should the potential threat continue, or if a deer is unsure as to the actual presence of a threat, it will usually stomp a forefoot in an effort to evoke a response from the unknown object.
Other deer in the immediate area are then warned of the possibility of danger. The possibility exists in this instance that deer may even be able to communicate by the ground vibrations generated by these foot stomps. Repeated foot stomps readily occur, probably for the same purposes as already mentioned. If or when the threat is identified as danger, deer will erect their tails, providing another cue to other deer of the imminent danger. In addition to the tail-up response, deer will erect the rump and tail hairs providing an immediate cue to flee the area. Mature does will flee the area of danger waving their tail as they depart. This highly visible flag waving provides a ready reference for her young fawns as they attempt to follow.

I have some more 101 Fallow Deer tips for week 2:
What is the right time to go hunting Fallow bucks? Early morning? After breakfast? Late in the afternoon? Well all the above times are good and you will see Bucks...in fact most of my bucks were taken around 9.00am -10.00am on most trips, but I like to get into my hunting area well before dawn...and get the wind in my favor. Once I am in my chosen pre-dawn area...I can sit, wait, look and listen.
Tip 5: I like to have my Nissan Patrol 4WD parkers on instead the headlights if possible going to my hunting area on a property so as not to spook game, and where it is safe to do so.
Tip 6: I like to sit around my Nissan for a while and let the bush settle down after my quiet arrival.
Tip 7: I listen to the bush and her animals. Often bucks will be near you and your vehicle, so don't look a gift horse in the mouth!
Tip 8: Check the wind often on the way to your location as it changes often in the early morning
Tip 9: Stop every 50 - 100 yards from your vehicle and glass for animal movement. Deer watch other animals for early warning so you don't want to spook a roo and send your Buck running off before the hunt started!
Tip 10: Once you are in your prime area sit with your back against a tree to hide your outline and scan the area with your binos looking for shapes that don't fit, like the rear of a buck sticking out from a bush, a buck making a scrape, a buck grunting. This is the time to know exactly what's going on and where all the does are!
Tip 11: Remember the does are the eyes and ears of most love struck bucks. Tip: Be ready...at all times for a quick shot at the Buck of a lifetime. He will not give you a lot of time...that's why he got to be that big.
Tip 12: But most important...take your time walking...feel the earth under your feet. Don't kick rocks, don't stand on sticks and don't shuffle and be looking at all times out in front and around you...think of it like dancing a waltz...one two three stop look one two three stop and look.
Tip 13: Quality binos are worth every Dollar. Like everything you pay for what you get...at the low end priced Nikon make some good low price around $600.00 and Leupold Gold ring for around $1000 and up to Swarovski and Leica for around 2 to 3 thousand dollars. "But I must say" they cut through the black night and early pre dawn light to let you see and same goes for after sun down you can see so much more and that's what you are paying for! High quality matched lens and special lens coatings...I know we are all on a budget...but save for quality in this area. the same goes for your rifle scope...more about that soon.
THE BEST TIP 14: I CAN GIVE THIS WEEK IS: Book a hunt with an Outfitter...you will learn so much.
These guides are experts in there field...you will learn, see many great bucks and it will be one of the best experiences you could do, so get in contact with them and book a spot! Outfitter Links are on menu.
Happy hunting until next week Aussie John...PS "remember to share a little of your deer hunting knowledge with a new hunter or friend...as we all had to start some-where "
