I know EXACTLY how you feel... [:' (]

This is my THIRD season and I still haven' t gotten a deer or turkey or heck, even a darn tree rat! [:@] The only thing I have to my name is, last season, I got a pair of ducks when out duck hunting with a couple of guys that I know.

People have said that it gets easier as you go along or it gets easier once you get that " first kill" . Part of me gets so discouraged and so p*$$ed off over the aspect (not to mention fierce competition) of hunting on public land, that I' m tempted to save up my paychecks and book a canned hunt somewhere up on a ranch on Alberta, Canada or Montana or wherever. Imagining a brochure: $1500 dollars... Deer, Elk, all sort of game species... Guaranteed successful hunt! Then again, I' m just a common frustrated hunter. I don' t have the successful hunts like those guys you see on TV on OLN or Outdoor Channel or whatever.
