RE: THATS IT!!!!!!!!!! I give up!!!!!!! WHY ME?
I wouldn' t go so far as to call him a big baby. All of us have felt the frustration, and I would bet a good number of us have been in the situation where you get busted, or get skunked and see no deer and wonder why you didn' t take up chess or some other hobby/sport where you can see a reward for your hard work more often. I agree hunting isn' t like that, you could work your butt off every season for years and have nothing to show for it, or you could score lucky and go out in blue jeans and a jacket (see the other post that was floating around about the new monster buck) and get lucky.
We have all been frustrated with the sport from time to time, and even myself on more than one occassion.
I go out and hunt and get busted or whatever, and yeah it makes you mad and the i shoulda, coulda, woulda' s come into your mind, and you leave the woods sometimes being so frustrated with it, but like a good book I have to come back to it, I have to know what happens, I have to be out there again. I can' t not hunt, even if I am convinced(in my head) that I will see nothing, I have to go, I want to go. I think I can truly relate to what it is like to have an addicition at this point in time.
Anyway, enough of my rant, but as hard as it is, maybe taking a smal break is best, relax for a few weeks, leave the calls and scents and home, hunt the wind and wait for the rut to kick in here in PA and then go try it again.
That is so much easier said than done, I know.
