I'm almost there. As far as gear goes, I'll need to pull a trailer if I get any more. Bow is all set too. I need to go look at one more property this weekend, then it's hands off until Oct. 1.

I'm 100% ready. Got all my equipment working in tip top shape. The bow and me are working well, have my license. Been shooting like crazy at targets and 3D animals.

Now, the season just needs to get here. I'm going crazy.

I'm 90% ready...my season starts Sept. 15. All I have left is to decide on which spot I will be hunting opening morning.

I'm ready, just have to get my broadheads tuned up and then I'm ready to rock and roll. Checked all my stands last weekend and trimmed all the lanes, now it's time to let the property rest. Need to put more fertilizer (urea) on the foodplots and may do some more glassing of the fields in mid september but thats about it.

As far as mental preparation goes I am 100% ready. My 3rd and 4th pins need to be sighted in on my bow but I am going to do that this week sometime. I got to see how my broadheads shoot as well. So overall I am probably 90% ready. Bow season starts here in 16 days!!
