Mine was EPIC! I certainly wouldn’t complain about my season, but if you think you had a bad season, let me share mine.
First off, no piggies during small game.......not one chance.
Second, I had my red dot on the wheel house of a shooter buck, but several factors lead to an epic fail, including a dirty lower and stuck trigger.........should have killed my first Deer. I did look up to make sure of my target though, he just moved when I did. No other real chances....
Third, I saw turkeys prolly 17 or 18 out of 20 times I went. I shot at one long beard at 40 ish yards but nothing to show for it, but a few feathers. Making this fail EPIC was that My position was bad. I didn’t see the huge gobbler that was maybe 10-15 yards away, until all the mayhem broke out! NEVER heard one gobble this year.....
Fourth, I get to my field for the hog/yote hunt and I realize I don’t have my orange vest. Decided to take a quick peek at the field and head back to the house. I was pretty mad and threw my clothes and stuff in the trunk, including my key. As soon as I shut the trunk, I knew I did the unthinkable. Yes, I was in the woods and locked my key in the truck! EPIC FAIL! Couple hours later, Robert the locksmith came and got it opened.
Went the following week and had a long beard and a few other birds about 40 yards to my right for a good half hour before I headed to the truck. I was walking toward them so they scampered off. I scanned the field again and sure enough, a coyote walks out and up the edge of the field. He came right where I wanted him to when I was sitting......but I was way too far away at this point and I had my chair in one hand.
Wrapping up this season, I went This am for a short sit...... I called in a long beard to about 30 yards that gave me plenty of time to shoot him as he was looking for me. Of course he did, turkey season is way over........I will get him next year!
I saw game, had my chances and thoroughly enjoyed the times I was in the woods.........I made some changes, plan to try some New things and I learned a bunch too. But boy was it an EPIC FAIL after epic fail......I harvested nothing this past year either. I don’t remember when that happened.
I pray I have as much fun next year as I did this one!!
