Default Not even thinking about it, what the .....?

Usually by this time of year Im bass fishing and focused on my upcoming tournys. This year, I am more focused on getting my bow and land lined up for next year. I have a 35K $ Triton sitting in my yard that hasn't been started since early Sept.!! Im up at the archery shops every sat. I usually drop the hunting by this time and start obssessing about fishing. Not this year, and I have been bow hunting and bass fishing for almost 20 yrs, I may have seen my better days as an angler, last 2 years I have just been so crazy for bowhunting. I don't know why, I have loved it for nearly 20 yrs, but it is even deeper now. My wife says Im sick!! I am sick... I know I am, just didn't think I would be more so after 20 yrs...

Combine the two and start fishing with your bow from it!

Best fun I have ever had during the summertime. Will be doing it much more this year.

Yeah I know what you mean. I've been doing more and more bowhunting the last few years. To the point now where that's my main focus (hunting wise) all year long....

I started hunting at about the same age and I will be 50 in May. The only thing that has changed is that I spend more money on it now. Don't worry, it will get worse.
