RE: Do you lose weight/get beat up?
I usually gain weight. I've gained about 5lbs this season. I hike all over creation with a climber on my back most of the time, but since most of my hunting spots are an overnight stay and roadtrip away, I eat like crap while on the road. Outside of hunting season, I might eat fast food 1-2 times a year and try to eat healthy........but during hunting seasonI eat fast food and garbage like that almostevery week. I also bring lots of snacks and goodies to the tree with me to keep me from having an excuse to get down.......that's the only way I'm able to sit all day long.
I'll be back at losing weight here in a few weeks. I lost 15lbs in the last year (gained 5 back during season). I'd like to lose that 5, and another 15 on top of that in the next year.
