    If it's bush your hunting, then if your sweating your going to fast. Into the wind and hunt where the sign is.
    Don't look for the whole animal look for something that's not right i.e. Ear flick, back, foot and shape. Then identify.
    If you can go out with someone who has more experience then so much the better as they can show you the finer points that you would miss by reading about it so like the above posts keep at it get out there.
    As a side note it took me three years to shoot my first one in the Kiamais but once I got my first then it all seemed to click and I was averaging 1 for every 2.5 days. That was back in the early 90's when deer numbers where a lot lower than they are today.
    Good luck

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    Hunt where the deer are. This means move along quickly until you find the level they are on then slow down and hunt as explained in the posts above.
