When I was young, I could hardly sleep when deer season opening day approached. And I used to hunt as hard as my work would let me. Then after I retired, I spent a lot of time hunting everything. I have a great friend that used to hunt with me, ride wheeler, go fishing, etc.. but he had a stroke. And after he stopped hunting, I kind of lost the love of it. I still went, but really did not care if I got anything. And if the weather was bad, then I just went home. Then the mass deer herd shooting started in the State and soon there were no deer in my area hardly. Then I really lost interest. I would wait for a good snow and try to walk one up. But with the knees going out more often, and other health issues.. I really have lost the drive. I still enjoy hunting, but now on my terms.
