A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bonecollector.com\/10-still-hunting-tips-for-deer-hunting-winter-bucks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blog<\/a> on the Bone Collector website gives some good tips for hunters who want to &ldquo;still hunt&rdquo; this winter. Here are some of them:<\/p>\n<ul><li>Move into the wind. Even if you stay in the shadows and are extremely quiet, deer could still get your scent if you aren&rsquo;t careful.<\/li>\n<li>Bad weather, such as rain or snow, can actually be a positive, making it tougher for wildlife to spot you.<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-1871 alignright img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/potlatchdelticlandsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/Winter-Deer-Hunt_john-hafner-archive_03745-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"191\" height=\"191\"><\/li>\n<li>Set your GPS to flag your vehicle&rsquo;s location, then don&rsquo;t worry about where your hunt takes you, knowing you&rsquo;ll be able to find your way back.<\/li>\n<li>Make every movement slowly, whether it&rsquo;s pulling up your binoculars or getting out some equipment you need.<\/li>\n<li>Travel light to allow maximum movement, knowing you&rsquo;ll be keeping warm by being on the move.<\/li>\n<li>Stay alert at all times.
