What is your driving force behind hunting?

[Bowtech 360]

What goes through your head when the alarm goes off at 4:30 in the morning that tells you to put on some camo. Is it the chance that a big buck will walk right by your stand, or as simple as just spending some time in the woods? Simplified, Why do you hunt?

For me, there is no one force, but all of them combined.

I dream of antlers, 24/7, 365.

I just love being in the woods watching everything, and the anticipation of maybe getting a shot. I also love the fact that most animals don't know that I'm even there, and everything goes on naturally.

That chance at a once in a lifetime buck.

That's good stuff, EI.

Mine changes from day to day.....based on what's already occurred.

I have goals I start the season with. If they're being met.....it's as simple as EI's statement. If they haven't/aren't.....it's a little (or sometimes a LOT) more "driving".

My grandpa says that all old people havea hard time going to sleep the night before!I
should just go to bed early the day before, I read an articale that teenagers actually prefer to stay up late and sleep in late also, not by choice but by some hormones in the brain.
