Goals are pretty similar to what they’ve been the past several years(not in any particular order)

To shoot a mature 125”+ buck in either PA or OH. To do so in both would be even better

Get my first traditional bow kill

Shoot at least 3, preferably 5 does with archery gear

Get an elk

But more importantly, my goal is to just go thru the season, having fun and not making mistakes. Pay attention to details and let the cards fall where they may. At the end of the season, I want to look back and know I gave it a good/smart effort regardless of what was or wasn’t killed.

and a 205lb 10% body fat build.
That'll be the toughest one, Matt. Good luck.

Buckmaster....you can film all you want. I'd rather me film and YOU shoot some does, though.

Rob.....my bow don't leave the bow stand until you have a NC bird on the ground. I can sleep while you hunt.
