Season - To Date....."Success"?

[GMMAT]

GR8 asked me the other day if I NOW viewed my '07 season as a "success", overall. Absolutely fair question, I told him. I still say the jury's still out. I need to get a few more does out of the herd, here....and I have a month or so to do so.

What about you guys? To date.....how's it going?

15 year old Mikey was able to get an absolute monster 8 pointer this past Saturday and I was able to take a decent 8 pointer last night.

My season has been great. I have not taken a deer yet, but have seen more deer than I have in many years and have enjoyed my time in the woods. That is success to me. (Although, I would still like to fill the freezer.)

my season was a major success. even if i didnt kill my buck, it was still a success. i was on bucks from day 1. to me, that showed me my scouting and hunting tactics are on its way up. last season total i only saw 5 bucks and 1 legal shooter. this year i didnt hunt nearly as much and saw 2 legal shooters for sure and 6 bucks total. plus a pile of unidentified deer.

learning from last years mistakes and making the next season better is what its all about. thats what makes success to me. tagging my buck was just icing on the cake and kinda "proved" my success i guess. now, next year i want to scout more and get onto more areas and hopefully new properties...i want to learn more about deer and get on MORE deer. already started scouting and wont stop...a couple reasons..major reason is if i work out of state or out of the area, i wont beable to scout come summer..and inseason/winter/spring scouting will tell you more than summer scouting anyways. looking for success next season as well...even if i dont tag a buck, just being on deer consistantly is a success to me..

now to take a doe with the flinter this late season.... just gotta find areas where theres a healthy doe population...

My best buck ever so far and 2 hogs. Sighted the biggest deer I've ever seen in the wild. Without a doubt it has been a success. Other than having only one tag filled when I had 3 at this time last year and the dispute with BIL it has been a smashing success.

Enormously successful for me. I took one of the two bucks I was after on my place, and I took my first out of state whitetail ever in Indiana. The only thing that could make it better would be if my dad could connect on a brute.

If I can bag two more does.....I'll reach my mgmt. goal for the season. The bucks I took are great memories.....but this season was about the does. Its been "a" successful season, YES. It'll be THE BEST if I can take care of the doe issue.

Already planning next season........

Yes, two bucks in the 110-115 range and a doe. And it aint over yet!!

Any day in the woods is succesful for me, but it could get much better!
