I shot my monster less than a week ago, and going out in 30 minutes trying to get a bigger one!

I got a doe this past Saturday and it definitely took the pressure off a little. My brother has 4 in the freezer this year so far, but he also has out of state tags-MD, while I only have my PA buck, and now one doe tag left. I took Friday off work, so if I get my buck then, or Saturday morning, which I hope I do;)then I will be done till PA rifle even though there will still be a week left in archery. I will spend that time with the family, and still have a doe tag to use once PA rifle comes in, December 1st. I can't miss rifle season, my dad only hunts with a rifle, and that is great "guys only" time.[:-]

Hey, I just noticed, it is my one year anniversary on here!:) Tons of knowledge gained in that years time. Thanks everyone!!

I hunt until im out of tags. It helps me improve my hunting skills and shooting at live game. Im sure once im older i'll settle down a bit, but until then I will hunt until I legally cannot anymore.

Then come on down for a visit, Schultzy. If you've already got your buck and it's more venison you're after, have I got a target-rich environment for you.:D

Jeff,
Even if you get your buck, surely you're going to keep trying with the longbow, aren't you?

For the most part yea, somtimes I back off a little, sometimes filling them all out comes easy. Sometimes it is all I can do and then some just to get a few.

I will be hunting until the first sunday in Jan when the season closes.
I pretty much get unlimited tags. Now that I found out where the
meat processor is that takes them in to feed the hungry I will
be trying to do my best to help out.

Even though in VA we are allowed 3 bucks per year, on the base I hunt we are only allowed 2. About 3-4 years ago I had killed two bucks by November 17th. I kept on hunting and learned new areas on the base and saw other bucks....just alot of good learning and growing as a hunter because I was able to observe. If I have doe tags I am still hunting.

But hunting is personal. If you have hunted since September Jeff and you want to cool down and spend some time at home, just take a couple of weeks off of hunting. Think about whether you want to hang up the bow for the season or not after you have had time to reflect.

I try and hunt all year, whatever may be in season (something is always in season). If I'm not hunting then I go scouting. During the summer I don't do as much though as I have a lot of "chores" around here to do then.

I hunt until the bitter end for deer and then move on to other critters, I love being out there to much to take a break. If there's an open season, I'm hunting!:)
