I usually hunt alone and prefer it over hunting with others. My son would come along a few times each year before he was old enough to hunt and I liked that. Last year he started hunting but ended his bow season just 3 days into it by shooting his first buck.

He did come out with me quite a few times after that but for the most part I hunted a lone.
Hopefully this year and the next few years we get to spend more time hunting together before life takes him away from me. I will have enough time to hunt alone once he is gone.
