coolie
Don MacDonald of Clinton was quietly moving
through an unharvested corn field to take up a stand at
the end of a strip of bush that was about 'r2 a mile long.
Suddenly he realized that something else was moving
along parallel to him, making a rustling noise as it
moved through the crisp, dry stalks. With all his srn�®-
alert, he m�Jved on, ghosting down between rows wrh�l1
trying to g a glimpse off whatever it was making the
noise. He pa sed just inside the edge of the field, trying
to get a fix n his elusive quarry.
The nois topped, and he had just stepped from the
corn when he spotted the big buck a bare 30 yards
away. The buck, miraculously, had not seen him. The
neck was still swollen, indicating a late rutting season,
as he stood stiff legged, ears rwitching and nostrils
flaring trying to locate that mysterious sound in the
corn that had alerted Don. Slowly Don raised the
Ithaca pump, and at the sound of the shot, Huron
County's biggest buck for the 1982 season crumpled to
the ground.
Pure luck? Maybe, to a certain degree, but Don's
hunting crew knew there were deer there. Cam
MacDonald, Don's brother, had occasionally spotted
deer moving in that area before. A close friend of
theirs, Jack Carter, who was hunting in a different
wildlife management unit, knew the area well, and
confirmed their suspicions that it was a travel lane as
well as a bedding area for deer. A few pre -season
scouting trips quickly showed them the best spots for
stands, and the most effective approaches to the area
depending on the weather. They had done their
homework well, and in the highly competitive, short
season districts of Southern Ontario, that's what it
takes to be successful.
Proper preparation for a deer hunt can never start
soon enough. To be effective year after year, the
hunter must know where the deer are, what their
pattern of movement is, and what they do when the
normal routine is broken. And that's only the begin-
ning. Next comes landowner relations, something that
is more important each year, selecting a hunting
method which suits you the best, choosing and
educating your hunting companions if you elect not to
hunt alone, and coordinating all these aspects so
everything is "GO" when opening day arrives.
Finding deer in the off season, and discovering what
their habits are, go hand in hand with landowner
relations. It's no good knowing there's a whole herd off
whitetails in someone's back forty if you can't get
permission to hunt there, and if you get caught
trespassing while out "lookin' for sign", it can be
mighty embarrassing as well as expensive. Find some
typical whitetail habitat, get permission to hunt there,
and then explore and study the area until you know
where the deer move, and when. This is something that
must be done well in advance of the deer season.
Tromping around the bush the day before will tell you
very little, and is just liable to drive any deer in the
area down to the nearest cedar swamp for the next few
crucial days.
An assessment must also be made with an early
November date in mind. That impenetrable screen,
which is impossible to see through in mid summer,
may be bald as a billiard table when the leaves drop.
Imagine an early snowfall and watch for particular
areas which may be protected enough to hold deer
through the first icy blast of winter. Always remember
that summer movement patterns will be slightly dif-
ferent from fall, especially just after the rut, but that
traditional migration or escape route will be used
pretty well year round.
A good start now will ensure success this fall, so
don't put it off any longer. Besides, aside from the
bugs, an early summer walk in the bush is both en-
joyable and rewarding.

Hully Gully wins
It is with great pride that
Hully Gully announces
receipt of the Canadian
Motorcycle Association
Organizer's Award for
Event of the Year; the 1982
Junior/School Boy
Motocross National Cham-
pionship. This award
recognizes exceptional pro-
motional efforts and dedica-
tion to the Motorcyclists of
Ontario, and is one of the
reasons Hully Gully was also
awarded the Senior
Motocross Championships to
be held this year on July 9
and 10.
Since 1972, Hully Gully has
been heavily involved with
motorcycling in Ontario, and
has been an active promoter
of motocross.
Hully Gully has set up a
special House League that
offers aspiring riders a
chance to race under stan-
dard race conditions and on
one of the most demanding
tracks in the province. It's
from this House League that
many C.M.A. racers have
come.
With this background, and
now with the recognition of
the Canadian Motorcycle
Association, Hully Gully
goes forth to even bigger and
better things.
Caution in canoeing
• from page 18
All canoeists should know
how to swim and float_ in the
water. The ability to swim
develops confidence but
should not lead paddlers to
overlook common-sense
rules. Keep the centre of
gravity low by kneeling on
the bottom to paddle.
Distribute gear evenly over
the centre portion of the
canoe. Refrain from making
sudden moves. Wear a life-
jacket or P.F.D. (personal
flotation device) while on the
water.
The Ontario Safety League
asks you to carefully con-
sider your personal safety
this season.
