I have been hunting about 12 yrs. The first yr I shot a deer and I then went to fl for hog hunting and got one in 06. Then I shot my last deer in 07. I always had to work off my husbands schedule for hunting. Then I found a place to hunt and stay for opening week and that only worked for 2 yrs. Where I hunt now it kind of fell in my lap and I am surprised its lasted this long. I have been on there for 4 yrs and haven’t shot anything. I also never put any effort into learning anything about the property till it flooded me out. Last season I prayed to the deer gods to put a deer out there for me, I should have specified the field I was in not the one I should have been in. What do I know, LOL. I will continue to go out because I am having so much fun with it. I am learning and seeing and smelling stuff that everyone should experience. When the woods wakes up and comes alive that’s the best thing ever! I think about gutting a deer a deer, can I do it? Now I squirrel hunt and have a dog for rabbit. The one reason I am not out there every day right now is because of the bugs! I hate bugs any kind of bugs they swarm and crawl and land on you.
Its funny how most people wouldn’t go out in the dark but we feel pretty safe being in the woods while it is dark.
Hunt on!
