I would have taken my son more, especially after I killed my buck..

Shouldn't have shot the yearling doe, but hey...I had a tough week and by golly, somethin was gonna die! [&:]

Shouldn't have climbed that tree that I KNEW had poison ivy vines all over it.....Ya'll ever have poison ivy behind your ears??? yeah, that pretty much sucks....But in doing so, I cleared out a KILLER early season stand for this year.

Other than that, not much. My tactics were pretty solid this year.....My scent control was tedious, in fact, almost too much like work. I was so anal about scent control that to some extent, it took the fun out of hunting. BUT......130" 8pt on the wall, guess it was worth it.

mobow...the posion ivy story kinda made me laugh...till it brought back memories...when i was young and dad and i ran coonhounds, he always shined his light on the ground before sitting down...me being a kid, didnt know why and would sit anywhere....lesson was learned when i was covered in posion ivy head to toe...litterally! dad will still tease me about that to this day...boy it was ugly...had to get on sterioids to clear it up. behind your ears is nothing try having it............

I wish i was paying attention to the direction the 140" 8 point came from the morning he did. He came from a direction that i have never seen him come from before and once i heard him, it was too late. Never saw him again.

Wouldn't have tried to hunt too many locations. Think I would have had a better season if I would have taken my time in a couple spots.

Should have gotten out of the stand I was in opening morning. The wind changed to the wrong direction and a bachelor pack came thru......never to be seen again.
