I didn't keep track this year. I did last year and it was kind of a hassle. Last year I was laid off all season and logged almost 500 hours in the woods. I didn't get to hunt quite that much this last season though. I'd say somewhere between 245-270 hours. Very successful though, I was able to harvest 3 mature bucks 3 1/2 yrs old and older. A fine testament that patience is a virtue, and good things come to those that wait.
