I've lost some great spots too. Seems right after we get their patterns figured out the owner sells or his son-in-law doesn't want us to hunt anymore. It's like loosing a good friend. We talk about hunts we had on this land or that. This year I found out the prime hunting area I have back east has been sold. I could literally see 100 deer in one day there. I don't think I'll even get out there before the closing for one last hunt. I just keep looking for new places and make new "friends" to make memories on.
