13 days and counting. I can' t wait, especially with this cooler weather we have been having the last few days. This is going to be a long 13 days.

Hey Mike, I' m starting to get the fever too. I made myself a promise a month or so ago that if it wasn' t very cool the first 2 wks of bow season, I wasn' t going to go. Normally it will be " cooler" but still warm and humid with mosquitoes swarming like flies. I' ve spent some truly misserable days on the stand in early October. The closer the big day comes, the harder it will for me to keep that promise to myself.he-he As misserable as some of those early days can be, if the weather is nice and very cool, those Oct. days can be the best of the year.

Either way, I' m starting to get pumped!

I' m getting giddy myself!!

Txcowboy, I know what you mean about not hitting it hard at first. Each year I promise myself not too, but I end up strapped to a mosquito bitten tree any way.
The action pics up on my East texas lease right at the end of season. By then I worry that I' ve already skunked up most of my spots in the early season sweating like a pig and swatting at them pesky bugs.

This year if I just can' t stand to wait I' m only gonna hunt one or two stands until the end of October, then start moving around.

I have killed an 8 and a 9 on opening mornings in the past though.

man, Im so excited I cant sleep. Ive worn out several hunting videos, been to walmart and basspro so many times that I have prefered parking, but I just cant seem to get the calender to move anyfaster. this is gonna be my forst full bowseason in over 12 years, I hunted a bit with my bow last year, but this is the big time this year. cant wait cant wait cant wait. hunting the first 3 days then I get the 3 full week of the season off so 9 days in a row, Im ready!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been counting since lat season ended. It is like waiting on Christmas! Bad news for me is that I can' t go opening morning. I HAVE TO WORK!!

I' ve been ready for weeks and if it weren' t for some dove and early teal hunting I' d be making everyone around me crazy.

12 days & counting. Just bumping to the top.

Mike.
What are you trying to do to us send us all crazy

It is the time for deep breathing exercises and quiet meditation. Patience is a virtue.

Too bad I' m a little light in that department.

I am pumped! This opener has been the only thing on my mind lately. The cooler temps have been a blessing just hope it sticks around. I' ve started washing clothes and getting everthing ready. Been shooting my bow daily and I' m so ready! Good luck to everyone this season!
