My weakness is probably getting myself to keep practicing shooting during and throughout the season. Every time i get a chance to hunt I do so and I usually put the practice off til after the season is over.

I have many. But the biggest one is putting all the fine details to everything I do when hunting. As we all know, success is in the details.

My biggest weakness is going too much with not enough rest. Hard to explain but the more I go, the more I have to go when at times I should stay home and rest up for another day. Drives my wife crazy at times and makes me mentally and physically weak.

If I hear something behind me I can't help but try to peek.
Now that's a good one, and it's cost me a few opportunities.

Sitting still........Im a big guy 6'2 300lbs.....and most lock-on's arent condusive to lard arses. Ive gotten way better about that this year. Havent been busted for fidgeting this year, although it may or may not have cause a few deer to not come in? None that Im aware of anyway. Fidgeting in turn leads me to want to get down earlier in the mornings.

My pet peeve when hunting period is cardinals and other birds.........right at the magic moment at dark they chirp their little heads off saying good night and it drives me nuts.

figuring out late season deer patterns. you just dont see them on fields here much even after dark. They have another food source, and finding it in a hugh woods where im sure its spread out is a problem.

I am too fidgety. I make too much movement just sitting there.

It is hard for me to judge rack size from the stand. I think this is because I have tought myself not to look at the rack when I plan on shooting the animial, just something that had helped be over come buck fever years ago. However, this has lead to me taking a few deer I have been disappointed in once I was on the ground.
