I see alot of complaining.
Hard core or whatever you want to call it doesn't compute for me. I know plenty of folks that hunt bright and early prior to work at 0800 and then even hit the woods during their lunch breaks. Then hit the woods after their day is done till sunset. Many that travel to other states to hunt and practice year round. Met a 23 year old last week that used his 96 to drive to Ohio to hunt some public land with a buddy and landed a beautiful 12 pointer. My neighbor who does two weeks on two weeks off for an oil company who just this past week was in Virginia for a bear trip for wounded warriors, 3 weeks prior was in Kentucky hunting deer, and a few weeks prior was in Kansas.
Maybe some of you as you that have gotten older may have started to see things little skewed then you used to, after all the older you get the smaller your social circle becomes. Quit crying, and get out there.
