10 Deer Hunting Challenges to Overcome This Season

By Mark Kayser – HuntStand

Nobody said whitetail season would be as easy. Challenges lie ahead. Some have easy solutions, but others might never be solved. Read the deer hunting challenges listed here. Then, prepare for the worst with a chance for correction before a hunt disaster occurs.

1. Prolonged Hot Weather

Whether climate change or just another whacky weather year on the planet, hot weather invades most hunting seasons. Even during the rut, it curtails whitetail activity. Whitetails move less because they have heavy winter coats. They drink more water and seek shade.

Solution: You should do the same, except ditch the puffy jacket. Hunt water and set trail cameras to monitor likely water sources, especially during the rut. To catch deer in the shadows, move stands 100 yards back from fields or near mast, like oaks.
