I have the opposite problem, Quick. I put on weight during deer season. Between leaving home at 4:30 (to go 1/4 mile) and sitting until 10-11:00.....to rushing home to get into the woods for 2 hrs.....my eating habits are WAY off. I'll get back on the treadmill, tonight....and shed the 10-12 I gained since the Summer.

190 here I come.....

Now it's duck, geese, pheasant, quail until the end of January. Then spring snow goose hunting in February and March. Then turkey in April then Walleye fishing. Then Antelope in Aug and Sept and then deer again until the end of Dec. Then it all starts over. Oops, I forgot to mention Dove in the equation above.

This season may be over, but next season has just begun .

I have the opposite problem, Quick. I put on weight during deer season.
You GAIN weight during hunting season? You're doing something wrong brother[8D]. I lose 15-20 pounds every hunting season. My pants slide off my waist until I put on some beef again during the holidays. I'd like to know how many miles my feet have walked from August through December.

NY...I run on the treadmill and on my road all year long......UNTIL deer season. Then......my routine gets so far outta whack......I'm no good with a schedule for running.

If I don't run....I gain weight. Simple equation. I went from 230 to 190 a couple of years ago. I hover around 200 when I'm "heavy", now....and 190ish when I'm "right".

I need to get "right", again!...lol

If anybody has a cure, please let me know.
Maybe just try doing something different and fun.

I'm currently working an a catapult to do some arial jug shooting and training for a pheasant hunt next year. I'm sure my son and his friends will also have a blast with it.
