Local Expert Talks Hunting Tips

Whitetail Firearm Season Opens Nov. 5

Some hunting and trapping seasons are underway, but whitetail deer hunt firearm season opens Saturday, November 5.

Gander Mountain Hunting Associate, Coyer Mackner, stopped by FOX 21 to give some tips.

Mackner says scent elimination is key because deer have such a strong sense of smell.

He says there are sprays and washes and ozonics.

Mackner says calls, trackers and safety tools for deer stands are important.

Gander Mountain has a couple sales coming up.

This Friday, October 28, is the last chance to take part in the camouflage Friday sale. Anyone going into Gander Mountain wearing camouflage gets 10% off any camouflage items.

Next Friday, November 4, the first 50 customers to spend $50 or more on a hunting purchase get a deer camp survival pack.
