Have you ever wanted to learn how to scout for deer sign, but just not sure how to get started? Or how do you know where’s the best place to put your deer stand or hunting blind when deer season arrives? Late winter and early spring are great times of the year to be out in the woods scouting for deer sign in preparation for next deer season. With no foliage on the trees and the ground usually wet, you can easily find deer sign such as tracks, deer droppings, rubs, bedding areas and even old scrapes.

Are you someone that has never shot a bow and arrow before and you’re not sure how to get started? Or maybe you did when you were young, but never pursued the activity any further.

This course is for those 11 years of age or older with the desire to shoot a bow and arrow but have little or no experience.
