Fun for me in the hunting woods is a mix of success and a sense of freedom. I like being out in the woods. I love hunting......put them both together and I just get a true sense of something greater. But on the other hand, I believe I am very goal oriented and I LOVE the challenge of bowhunting. I would NOT be happy if I did not experience harvesting an animal every year or two.

Fun, to me, is scaring the crap out of my kids and wife with pranks, leaving a totally ridiculous message on my answering machine, going out with my family to do almost anything, shooting my bow or guns, planning a hunt, shooting and recovering a deer, finding time for the boom-chicka-bow-bow while trying to raise 3 kids(did I just say that was fun?)

Anything that rewards me or someone I love, is fun. It may be work sometimes, but not always.

As the old saying goes, "All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy."

Work is necessary to accomplish a lot of things, but let us not make it necessary to be a part of all that we do.

There is a quotable quote that says " Success is a journey, not a destination." . For me, the same can be for my "hunting fun".

As many of you have said as well, I enjoy every hunt whether it be ideal or inclement weather, whether I see a deer or not, or whatever. This is the journey.

But having said that, I personally have to set goals at whatever I partake in whether it be business or hobbies. This is the destination. Once a particular destination is met, I set a new one to try and achieve.

Some goals have yet to be met. Doesn't mean I haven't and don't enjoy the journey, I just haven't reached my destination yet.

Fun is telling my dad that I shot a spike buck and seeing his eyes when he walks up to a 10 pointer.

I think fun for meits just being able to hunt. Sometimes its fun learning new stuff and actually applying it, then seeing it pay off of. Like correcting a golf swing and seeing yourdriver not slice 50 yards lol, or when shooting a bow for example andseeing a change work, thats pretty fun.
