Default RE: "Too many locations"?

Then why do you want to fix something that ain't broken?
That's a fair question. I realize the benefits of having multiple spots to hunt.....I do. I just wonder if people find themselves second-guessing their setups who've gone through this.

I'm not looking to "fix" anything....and I don't think I've been "lacking" anything, either.

I've gotten some good advice from this. For one.....learning each property will be fun (knowing when/where to hunt). Also....giving certain "previously productive" spots a rest can't do anything but help.

I suppose (don't know).....I'm taking a chance that .....what I'm (possibly) giving up.......can be part of the excitement....and the new areas (possibly) can be fruitful (maybe even MORESO). It may just take a little more time (Also not a "negative").

For the most part.....I've been screwed with any N, NW, NE wind in the past. Now I'm not. I also know I've over-hunted my good spots.

So....we have guys who hunt the CRAP out of spots that have been productive for them in the past. One thing that I'm thinking is......my REALLY good spot is a really good spot at a certain time of the year. I now can stay the heck out fo there until that time arrives. I've been too stupid to do that in the past....and I've still gotten away with it.

In compormise.....I'll likely NOT hunt all of these areas in '08. Maybe just try to learn one more property at a time. The land I won't hunt (very much) this year isn't going anywhere (family land).

I suppose the best of all worlds would be.....having "hot" spots on different properties at "most" times of the year. That's what I'll be looking for. I guess we all are.
