#1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
As hunters we are always learning in the feild. So my question to all is what was the most important thing you learned this year?
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
To not let anyone take away the joy I get from hunting.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
A stick in the eye is worth 2 in the bush..........
(or something like that) |
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Sometimes spending every single day in the woods will not always lead to you harvesting an animal. Sometimes being in the right place at the right time is just as good as putting all those hours on stand. ;)

"It's better to be lucky than good"............... except for............ "To be lucky and good". I guess I didn't learn that this year but thats what I've always beleived in, haha. WCL

When you have to wear the litttle plastic tag during the managed hunts, put it on your hat so it doesn't go "booiiing" when you draw back [:'(]

To not rush my shots......my worst year my bowhunting career was last year....maybe it's because I was shooting a Mathews;). I am getting a bowtech in a couple weeks here. Hopefully that helps!:D
But I learned not to rush my shots and just take my time more. |
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
ORIGINAL: Germ I suck[&:] The most important thing I learned this year is how to effectively hunt certain areas. I alternated stand locations and didn't over hunt a single area, keeping the entire property virtually unspooked and productive all year long. |

I learned that the "Charmin to Go" packet contains about 4 less squares than is necessary for a first rate job afield. That and a whole lot about EHD.

RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
When setting a stand in the dark you can get no perspective of how high you are with a flashlight.
Not being a big fan of heights I learned this is a bad idea. When the sun came up I realized how high I was and had a shooter walked by I would have watched as I didn't feel comfortable standing up, aiming and shooting. |
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
A treestand and a sudden case of Diarhhea are a bad combination.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
i before e except after c. lol
Actually I took up tracking this year. I learned more this year than any year before. The things I learned this year from tracking will put a lot of antler on the ground in up coming seasons. If I was going to teach a newcomer to the sport One of the first things I would do is take them out on a track and follow it and study every little detail of that deers movement. |
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
To never stop hunting/paying attention while still in the woods. Cost me dearly this year. One of those was a deerof a life time.[:@]
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
That when you work for a company that has hunting lease and allows you to shoot big deer during the middle of the week... you tend to work harder for them.:D:D:D
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
To have the patience to pass up 135 to 140" bucks with my bow so that they will be 160 to 180" next year. Also that having a good year doesn't mean you have to shoot an animal, I didn't shoot a deer all year long and still had the best hunting year of my life, and what i mean by that is i seen so many 130 to 140 class bucks walk under my stand and it was so fun to watch them come running into rattling

That filming and hunting with your good friend is good times.

RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Know my limits, (yardeges). Learn to track. And never give up.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Doing everything you think it right and amassing ridiculous hours in the stand, doesn't always payoff like you'd hope.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
i learned not to go out in the woods everyday to get my trail cam. I dont care how tempting it is im not going to check my camera until 4 days later after i put it out.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Checking my cuddeback to much last year during hunting season, won't happen again!!
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
That regardless of how many different area's I have scouted it wasn't enough,and I thought that it certainly should have been!
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Leave the binoculars in the truck during gun season, so you can bring your gun and scope up to shoot the 200 plus class deer, instead of lookin' at in awe through your binoculars ...
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
That there is a big non-typical where I hunt.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Greg, when you getting back your buck from this year? Or did you already?

RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
The most important thing I learned this season, is that an aggresiveMamma ground hog can run as fast as I can while carrying a bag of corn on my shoulder : )
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
I want to hear the ground hog story! Were you in a foot race with a momma gopher?
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
The early bird gets the worm!! Set the alarm loud and get up when it goes off, don't doze off and then be late getting to the stand and have a 150in buck come right under your stand when your only a third of the way up.

When you are going to a stand that you have in mind an that little voice in the back of your head says, no go to this stand. Well, listen to it.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Not to rush my shots.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
That there's more hunters than I thought going back into my area.[:@][:'(]
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
Get in the woods early and be patient. Saw deer 100% of the time.
|
RE: #1 most important thing you learned afeild this year?
I'd second this for me since I found myself logging some serious hours this year (more than any year before). I saw deer 95% of the sits, one doe harvest, but ZERO shot opps on a legal buck. Really odd year for me, and it has me rethinking some of my tactics. To go along with that, I need to plan entry/exit routes better, and resist the urge to hunt a "good" spot that doesn't have a good entry and exit route. Wait...was that more than one thing? |
