A perfect deer hunting trip always ends with the hunter harvesting a big white-tailed buck, but as we know most hunts do not end that way. However, Bob Coombs had anything but a perfect hunting trip, or season for that matter, but he ended up harvesting the biggest buck every harvested in the state of [...]
Whitetail hunting can be a safe and effective way to control white-tailed deer populations in urban and suburban areas.

When all was said and done, it was Minter putting his [...]
White-tailed deer are survivors, but this has got to be the toughest deer ever. A six legged deer fawn was discovered in Georgia. Though the fawn was born with 6 legs, 50% more than the average deer, that was not enough for this poor little critter to endure. The fawn also has two tails, two [...]
Reader Submitted on October 19, 2009 I’ve been bow hunting white-tailed deer ever since I started shooting archery in 4-H Shooting Sports (almost 12 years ago now).
