Was just curious what everyones plans are for the passing of spring? I plan on spending lots of time scouting the new swamp spot and possibly building a nice elevated ground blind for me and dad to share hunts out of. I have to get the new feeder set up and have the mounting post all made, hopefully the ground will be thawed enough for me to dig the hole for it. I also have the new .204 ruger that I plan on fine tuning a hand load for it, never found the right one last summer. As far non hunting is concerned, I may plan on going back up to the Maumee river for the walleye run. Have done it some and its alot of fun. As far as non hunting is concerned I am currently in a welding class for AWS certification. I have my stick welding down and am currently working on TIG welding aluminum and stainless. I am really surprised at how fun the TIG is. Hopefully if all my ducks line up just right I will have a Vortex by my birthday and that will consume my summer until deer season gets here! So what are all your plans for the off season? The only one I can think of is all the work ranger has to do on his porch. Anyone one else have any plans?

Hunting is like Marriage, you get out of it what you put in it. Sometimes you score and sometimes you don't, but its always fun going out!
i like to garden so that takes up a lot of time in the spring. i always save some time for perch fishing. also have a horse that thinks his sole purpose in life is to eat grass. i need to teach him how to be a horse this spring.

Fishing, scouting, major yard clean up.. I have to re-turf a big chunk of land I tore up to lay a weeping bed. We are also planning on doing a major addition this year to accommodate the new family member, our home is small.
Turkeys, fishing, camping, and probably some work..

Well I won the lottery so I'm going to DisneyWorld! Then, buy a new house in England. Go on a two month cruise. Buy a 1000 acres of prime deer land. Buy 15 new crossbows. Find a new, young wife. Hire a full time professional deer hunter to just sit around and talk hunting with me all day. Buy a thousand head of filet mingon cows. Grow a field full of baked pototas.
Other than that, I'll just be a little lazy until deer season rolls around.
Oh, and early April Fool on winning the lottery!
