How many days do you hunt a season?

In the old days, every weekend and 2 weeks vacation. When I retired, for 10 years nearly every day of the season. These days it all depends on how I'm feeling, but I'll hunt till I die. Preferably while I'm turkey hunting.
Amen, plus the weather. Anytime I have the grandkids

Waterfowl hunting for me

At least 1 day a week all season long, a lot of times twice, 5-7 in a row hopefully at least twice during that time. Take away the hot weeks, of course!

At least 1 day a week during firearms season here in the mountains ((except the week of Thanksgiving (usually rut), when I go every chance I get)).

I love bowhunting, but it is often just too hot and uncomfortable.

8-12 full days in Illinois.

1-2 afternoons at our SC club per year.

I put a good many folks in the stand, in both locations…. If that counts.


Now someone needs a new thread - how many days do you spend WORKING each year for the deer.

Yikes!

I pretty much only get to sit on Saturday's due to work Mon-Fri and church on Sunday. I may have sit 10 days this past year. But they were great days!!!

I'm with you he needs to hunt more. Think he's busy working. Planting trees or plots. Building gun ranges. Etc. Seems he enjoys others successes, possibly more than his own. Good man for sure.

Hey Marvin!

We have 844 acres leased.

Jo and I own 57 that borders.

Last year, I went to the stand 2 afternoons.

Once to simply drink beer and watch a field and once to bow hunt.



Yeah, I gotta catch another gear.
