White-tailed deer hunting in United States

White-tailed deer is the No 1 game animal in the United States. Numerous, well adapted to coexistence with humans, and delicious - no wonder when most Americans say “hunting”, they mean white-tailed deer hunting. In most states the animal is so abundant that hunters may harvest five or more deer a season. But it doesn’t mean that deer hunting is easy. Whether you aim to fill the freezer, or kill an old, mature buck with an impressive rack to put on your wall, you’ll find the whitetail a hard nut to crack. Some hunters prefer the solitude and quiet of bowhunting, others like to still-hunt or make small drives with their friends. The best time and the worst time for hunting white-tailed deer is usually the rut, which usually takes place in November. Unfortunately, this time usually sees the firearms season, when most public lands are swarming with hunters and bullets fly about like hail. If you don’t have access to private land, your only choice of escape from “the orange army” is to seek the services of an outfitter or professional guide. The quest for the buck of your dreams may take you miles away from your home. The Midwest, especially Kansas, has the reputation of the land where the biggest whitetails dwell, and Texas is the world’s capital of game ranches, where a variety of selecting tools and specialized feed is used to ensure the biggest-antlered deer. But whether free-range or farmed, good deer hunting can be found in any state that has white-tailed deer, as the offers from our outfitters testify.
