RE: Best learned lessons from 2006
I asked myself that question from the 05 season! 2006 turned out to be the best bow season I've had. New bow, new land, and new treestand. I'm not a horn hunter, but did arrow a nice 8, 6 and 3 does. (Watched all but the 8 drop, he went about 150 yards) I let at least 15 younger deer walk that I would have shot during my earlier years as a bowhunter. It was fun taking pics of those deer and watching their behavior as they wondered away.
What would I change for this year? I think I would write down the actual weights/measures I used for all my sausage and jerky makings. Keeping a log would make the next batch easier and/or better.
