Question

Dr. Grant,

I am 12 years old and I love to hunt!  I have been hunting since I was six.  I started deer hunting 3 years ago and I just started bow hunting this year.  I have never shot a deer, gun or bow.  Could you give me a few pointers on food plots and bow hunting?

Nick,

I’m glad you enjoy hunting!  It’s a fabulous way to learn about the environment, and other lessons that will help you in all aspects of life!!  Rather than give you the short answer here, why don’t you check out the 500+ responses I’ve written to specific questions about hunting and food plots here, in the Grant’s Answers section.  Use the search feature to find information about specific topics.  I also share a lot of information in my blog, Thoughts from the Field.  Finally, I hope you will consider joining us at our annual events.  These are great events to learn more about deer and deer hunting from myself and other folks that attend.

Growing Deer together,

Grant
