Any endeavor if not taken in balance, will come at a price.

Every Option. life has to offer will detract from your available intrest. If my life was a car, I got it full loaded.

Wife
Children (3YO and a 18 month old)
Job (not just a "job" buta career, I can't just call off cuz I feel like huntin)
Parents ( Going through some difficulties with health)

Yada yada yada.... So yes If I was just to pursue aparrently (5.5 yo 170" 200# ) deer all year without any regards to anyone but myself and my glory..it would come at a price.

I will Hunt these critters ..I will enjoy every moment of it..I will even hinge on being obessed with the desire. But at any time ..any of the above options (plus many I left out) can step in with a need, and I'll turn the switch off. Until the time is right to turn it on again.
