Default tough first half of the season

early bow was just too hot, avg of 80

early ml, had to work a lot (more money more toys)

rifle. days I got to hunt, just something went wrong, either got sick or lost gear. last day I got to hunt, I hurt my back.

hoping for an better last half. late bow is going now. late ml starts in an week or so.

I have much better luck in the later seasons

It's not over untill the Last Blast of the MLer, it only takes a Second to turn it all around.
Best of Luck!

My Wife's still on me about Her Deer THIS Season, ya know (The One I could have Shot but let Her) anyway that story will come soon, Im still Hunting and it's not over yet. Dont give up and if you have'nt tried it yet, Hunt from 11am till 2 pm and mabey you will be surprised at what's moving when most Hunter's are at Home.
Good Luck!

I went through the same thing the two previous years. Nothing went right and the effort just to get some venison was becoming a bit too much.

Two years ago i got nothing but the site of a tail and arse bouncing away. Last year i didnt score until the last week of ML season. That was a long and tiring wait for one buck.

This year i filled my tags in the area where we built a comfy heated tree "house" in about 25 hours. All that time spent building it and it was only needed for a couple of hours.
