Jeff,

If I tag out early this season ..say Sept. Do you really think I would be done whitetail hunting for the season. "Killing" in Idaho yes.. hunting them...NOT EVEN... You dont have to kill a deer to be in the woods watching learning etc.. or filming, it'slike hunting with a camera. I've tagged out early in the past.. I either take others huntingand orscout right during the season...nothing changes.. Heck some of the best bucks I have ever found to hunt the following season came from inseason scouting after tagging out.

Sure some could call it a season and watch the NFL.. But not everyone.

The guy that takes more deer is definatley getting more practice at making a shot, tracking and recovering, field dressing, etc.. butchering if you do that too...But guys in 1 or 2 tag states likehere in Idahomay take the time to offer help to others fortracking and packing. Here we do that a lot ELK ARE BIG ...you dont justdrag one out! LMAO...or I can hunt 2 bear, 2 elk, at least one Loper and afall turkey if I choose. All of those kills and recoveriesadd to the shooting, tracking recovering skills as much as killing more whitetails...
