You can’t make something out of nothing, the shot has to be there, you don’t have to take a shot…there is always another day.

Don’t over hunt a spot, they will get wise to you so switch it up every few days.

I dare to disagree
A hungry hunter is a better hunter.

Be persistent and don't give up, even if you don't get anything you'll at the very least learn something new.

When you’re cold and about to get up and go for a walk - wait 5 more minutes.

For all the money spent on gear, time scouting, km rolled on the odo's, I have to say this is the most overlooked item on a lot of guys lists. I've seen a lot of sucky shots. A bit of time spent behind the trigger goes a long, long way

ALWAYS keep shooting until your quarry is down for the count, or you are out of ammo.

When cow calling elk wait at least thirty minutes (45 is better) before moving to your next set up...many Bulls will come in silently and very cautiously.

Advice
Get downwind of an area that can’t be seen from a road and then, of course, “ sit down and shut up”.

Learn to glass, don’t look into the binoculars, look through them then pick apart the bush one piece at a time.
