I went through it a couple years ago, I went out adn it wasnt the same, the fire was gone. But once the rut hit adn I started seeing bucks chasing does, I remembered what it was that I enjoyed so much about hunting. Mother Nature.....being alone, relaxation, a sense of well being. The fire came back. And now its stronger than it ever has been. Dont let the last ember burn out. Go out and sit, and reflect on why you are there, what pulls you to the woods year after year?
