    Help out a begginer

    Hey guys i am a newbie to deer hunting, i have done a lot of rabbit shooting and a small amount of goat hunting, but am a complete novice when it comes to deer. I live in rural Wellington and hunt in Akatarawa forest, (bush hunting for red deer). I mainly follow a river bed but also have had a poke round in the surrounding bush and seen plenty of sign (fresh prints and poo). I am only 17 and unfortunately no other family members are deer hunters so i don't have anyone to show me the basics. I am prepared to be very patient as i just enjoy exploring the bush and gaining experience, however i was just hoping you guys would be able to give me some tips to get me moving in the right direction. I have been told that the wind is the key, and to move SLOW and STOP often, and was just wondering what other things i should keep in mind or just general tips.

    Any and all advice is welcome,
    much appreciated Josh
