I haven't deer hunted since 1982.....long story.
But anyway, I am this year, and I can't wait! :)
I'll be using a long bow and hunting from the ground, on public land (sort of) it's a military base so there are a lot of rules, and forget leaving a pop-up overnight unless you want it to go bye-bye. Regardless, I've done my homework and am very optimistic! ::;

I just found out I might not get to hunt after work as often as I thought due to family commitments/priorities. :cry:
So, I'll be doing a lot of "all day on stand" hunts on the weekends, maybe take some vacation time here and there. :bounce:

I will totally turn this around to my advantage however - always one more way to skin that cat IMO. Does anyone ever get to hunt as often as they want? Nobody I know that's for sure. I'm shooting my bow every spare minute so the "weakest link" won't be the actual shot. That's the one thing I have control over anyway.

Tip 'o the hat to you oldfella! :cheers: You clearly have the bowhunter mentality. Good luck this fall.
