I hear you, it usually takes me 3-4 years to get a couple thousand acre area slightly understood.. but its fun..

I've hunted one piece 6 years, the other 3, (new home area) the third just startingthis summer and the other my old stomping ground I grew up in since I was 12. Theres a fifth area but I cant justify traveling the75 miles right now when its as good at home.. gas prices and time..
