Hang in there kiddo! I like what you said in your post (i would not call this year a failure more like a learning experience) You hit the nail on the head with that one! When a guy quits learning in the woods its time to give it up! GMMAT, a day out in the woods is better then anytime spent in the house weather you feel good or not about seeing deer! You can look at it this way too, you made yourself a good buddy! You seem like a great guy,good things come to people like yourself!
