The key to a safe deer hunting trip is to follow the proper gun safety rules. The first rule is to always keep your gun pointed towards the ground. Never aim the gun at anyone except the deer you are hunting. Wear bright clothing so that other hunters will recognize you. The deer won't see your bright clothing if you choose a good hiding place. Gun accidents are often caused by other hunters who accidentally shoot a fellow deer hunter. You can purchase brightly colored vest and hats at hunting stores. Bright deer hats are important when you are hiding in a tree. Don't take a chance with safety and use the same precaution before you shoot your gun at what appears to be a deer. Be sure you know how to operate your deer rifle. Take gun lessons and practice at a shooting range until you are comfortable.
A good rule to follow is to keep your gun unloaded unless you are ready to shoot. Never place your finger on the trigger unless you positively identify a deer. If you hunt on a deer lease, then find out how many hunters will be on the property at the same time you plan to hunt. Follow the rule of think first and shoot second. When you see a deer that is within target, take a few moments to consider the area behind the deer. Make sure other people aren't walking around behind the deer. Be sure your deer rifle is working properly. Learn how to clean and maintain your deer rifle. Wearing eye and ear protection is important when you are hunting. Another safety precaution is to make sure you choose the right ammunition for your deer rifle. You will learn a lot of safety information that you might not have thought about by taking gun classes.
Become familiar with safety equipment by visiting hunting stores. Lock your guns and rifles in a secure place when you aren't hunting. Never take alcohol on a hunting trip. It is too easy to become intoxicated and you will lose your good judgement. Follow these tips the next time you go deer hunting.
