Predator hunting will keep me busy this winter. We can hunt coyotes all day, all night and all year! Spring turkey hunting as well a tree planting and fertilizing, putting in summer food plots, cutting firewood the list goes on. This will take me into the VERY busy summer months for work then next thing you know it's starts all over again! I will admit I HATE August, seems like it take forever for September to roll around!

I live15 minutes from the gulf so I fish and spearfish. I also have a wholesale nursery that keeps me busy as a passion and part-time job.

Well for the last year building and furnishing my camp has kept me VERY busy. This weekend I hope to finish up insulating it, and the following 2 weeks I hope to finish the interior. Add in a wonderful girlfriend, family time,competitive 3D in the summer,multiple indoor leagues during the winter, spring gobbler hunting, working part time at a local archery shop, growing 3 acres worth of food plots, etc.........you could say I keep pretty busy.

I wanna give 3D a shot, next year. We'll be shooting indoors right after deer season. LOVE that.

Then....I'm gonna take a little time away from my bow. Maybe not touch it for Feb/March.....except to shoot the longbow. Turkeys with the Bowtech again in April......then I'll probably shoot 3D next Summer.....once a month or so.....sometimes 2x.

I'd also like to flyfish more. I miss that, terribly.

I hear you here. I grew up with a fly rod exploring remote streams in Vermont full of native fish and really miss that tons. I think this upcoming summer will be my last summer shooting competitive 3D as seriously as I do, I want one really good year with the time to see just how far I can make it and where I really stack up. My wonderful girlfriend loves to fish with me and I just don't have the time with 3D mixed in there, I can see the 3D thing taking a back burner to me getting a boat and doing more fishing with her.
