I started hunting in the 70's. I could go bow hunting just about anywhere I wanted. Archery was called "primative weapon season" then. LOL
Land up north sold for $25 - $50 an acre! My grandpa bought a lake lot (3 acres w/ lake frontage) for $3500! There was no internet!

I never hunted with my i-pod

. My arrow flew slow enough that I could see where they went. A fall away rest was one that fell off your bow.lol My bow was so slow I could use a bale of hay as a target. When I shot a deer I had to wait til I got home to call my friends. Then I had to stand next to the phone and talk because it was attached with a cord. I didn't know Pope or Young. I used a baker tree stand. Anyone remember those tree burners? A quad was a muscle group.
I kinda miss those days
