Shed hunt, coyote hunt, scout for turkeys, hit the gun shows, and do some woodworking.

Do a tick of preadator calling, I dabble in leatherwork, alot of it is mainly repair due to my work. As far as this particular winter goes, I have a few european mounts to finish up on and have some old racks that I am plaque mounting and such. I like to also organize my hunting stuff before I pack it up, clean everything and so forth.Oh and my favorite part is sit my butt in a classroom for 4 more freaking moths. (Who would have ever thought getting a degree would be so boring, I guess I sholdnt have put all of these freshmen level classes off untill my last semester.)

Hyperanalyse and over discuss meaninglessly technical bow stuff on the internet when I should be at work, doing laundry or anything that actually has a tangible end product. But where's the fun in that? Besides, I like you guys better than the people I work with anyway!

Winter for me is usually over time season. My job affords me as much as I want so Jan. through May I really tap into it. It helps me get things!

I like to ski and snowboard, but I didn't make a trip to do that this year..

At the moment I am just taking it easy and waiting for it to warm up a tad. Once the weather gets nicer I will start backpacking down here in this part of the country. As much as I like to hunt, I also like to spend time outdoors simply for the enjoyment....no pressure.

I am also picking up fly fishing. I am pretty excited to learn that.

It has been about the same for me only all year long.[&:]I am hoping to get some icefishing in as wellas a little rabbit hunting with my bow.. I do not mind all the ot right now as we are looking at shutting down some of this spring and summer. I hope we are fortunate enough to be able to start back up during some of next year anyways. The only reason we are running right now is because of the cold weather. It would cause to much of a problem when every thing freezes up. Also I do a little fly tying for this springs fishing season..
