A bowhunter should prepare and follow a hunt plan in case of becoming lost, sick, or injured. Your hunt plan should answer the 4 Ws’: Who, What, When and Where
Who are you going with?
What route will you take to and from your destination?
What means of communication will you be taking with you?
Where will you be going?
When is your departure?
When do you plan to return?
Ensuring you leave a copy of your hunt plan with a friend or family member is particularly important. If you do not return home by the date you set on your plan, they will have all the information to give to search and rescue.
