man i thought i was impatient.....your average is 2.65hrs a sit....dont take offense to that...none intended...i'll be the first to admit i struggle after 9am...10 or 11 im outta there...working on that myself...patience and myself dont get along but were trying to come to an agreement....


very nice sighting numbers though!! atleast to me....id be pleased with those numbers...im still working on the whole deer hunting thing...last year got better from my first year of bowhunting 2 years ago...see how this year pans out...im working to get into more deer more consistantly...

I just dont get the chance to get out in December that much. With Christmas shopping, Christmas, New Years, and then I have my son with me for a couple of weeks around Christmas time. Plus our busy time at work starts right after Thanks Giving, and that means 12 hour days, 6 days a week at work.[:'(]

LOL! Ya I knew someone would comment on my hours per sit. I dont sit very many mornings, and by the time I get home from work durring the week, I only have about 3 hours to get out. I dont have an over abundance of time to hunt, so I just get out when I can.

nothin wrong with that! i was just observing and curious...figured you did alot of hunting before or after work....


Jeff, i was thinking the same...opening day last year i know i waited about 2hrs in the dark....and this year i will do the same...just wanna make sure i beat everyone that may be thinking they are hunting my spot lol...i HOPE my vehicle parked deters them...but i know it hasnt once...i park in an area easily seen, but also in an area that keeps people guessing so i dont readily give my spot away...but anyone smart will say "hmmm he MIGHT be up on that hill....i will go elsewhere..." and ive found in that spot being EARLY is key....cant figure out why...almost like they use it as a staging area before going to bed after coming off the fields...though i have never seen or spooked any from the fields when im there at 4-430...

Oh, I know, I always say every year, that I am going to hunt more the next year, but it seems like something is always gettinig in the way.[8D] No worries Jeff, everything is cool.
