Hunting is an increasingly popular pastime for the whole family. With growing numbers of women taking up the sport, the opportunity to create special memories with the whole family in the outdoors is better now than ever before. And whether you're an experienced hunter, have been on a couple of duck or deer hunts or are just getting started, there are plenty of questions that need answering along the way. Most of these are questions you end up musing over for a long time and never bother asking anyone. After all, these folks have been here before and asking what the draw weight of a bow for hunting elk is will mark you out as an inexperienced dullard. But fear not - there are no stupid questions, and the best way to learn about hunting is to experience it. The key to success in many areas of life is proper preparation. Hunting is an excellent example of this. Regardless of your experience level, being adequately prepared for the hunt will give you a distinct edge over other hunters in the area and can make all the difference between success and failure. Of course, if you've planned your hunt to the nth degree, there's still every chance you won't bring home a kill. The most important thing to understand is that hunting is much more than running around the wilderness slaughtering animals. It's an experience - one that generations of hunters around the world have learned, taught and shared with their friends and family across time. And the benefits each individual takes away from that experience vary just as much as the people who hunt. There is plenty of wild life out there, as anyone who's ever set foot into the less built-up areas of the world knows. And across North America, you can bet that plenty of people are making plans to hunt at least one thing in their local area in the coming seasons. Commonly hunted animals include the deer and elk, while more exotic species like bear, prong horn and sheep are also hunted in some areas.
