Default If you could....

If you could take back one thing you did this past season, what would it be?? I can't think of anything, I had the best season in all my 20 years of hunting.

x2!

Also, I shouldn't have used the rattle bag as much (almost every sit during the rut)...I'm giving up on that in MN. I think the small bucks I saw were on their way to my stand anywayAnd I saw the big ones when i didn't rattle. Live and learn.

I did have a lot of luck grunting this year though.

Wish I had gone every chance I had. Hopefully it wasn't my last season. My back surgery doesn't work I may never hunt again.

The last week of bow season I shot, hit and had a complete pass through ofa 150 class buck and did not find him. The shot was in the middle of thefront shoulder. I think IfI would have helda second or two longer for him to move out from behind a small treeI could have got the heart. But he was about to bolt and I thought it was a good shot so I let it go and the rest is pure disapointment.

Where to begin????

OK....If I could....I'd stay home on some of the hot days I hunted. THAT would have taken care of a few issues.
