i hunt alaska, i spent around 300 hours or so scouting, 20 full days moose hunting,10 days this year caribou hunting, 5 or 6 days chaseing bears around. plus a few hours here and there watching sheep. typicly i spend about 8 hours a week shooting. im constantly lookig for somehting i dont have or need or somehing better, i even wore my new camos to my company christmas party. ive been hunting for 25 years and bowhunting for 3. its not about killing its about being there one on one with mother nature, the sights, sounds and smells. nothing makes your hair stand up like the smell of a bear crossing your path and seeing the prints that are bigher than your boots.
