RE: Did ya ever just have ..."that feeling?"
I generally hunt with the mentality that the hunt of a lifetime can happen in less than 15 seconds. Those 15 seconds could come at any time, and I try to be as optomistic as possible.
Sometimes, you really feel like the conditions are perfect. The wind is right, the temperature is perfect, the solunar chart says "it's time," the sun is over the hill, it's nice and quiet, and you know it's about to happen. So yeah, I get that feeling. Your heart starts pounding before you even see or hear a thing. I guess if Istopped getting "that feeling," I'd quit.

...that today would beTHE day when you begin your hunting day?
Kinda like, you could just feel the stars were in alignment and you could feel it in your bones. Success would ring true before the hunting day would be completed.

I thought that once. Then I found out that was just the tingling from static right before lightning struck.[8D]

I do have days were everything feels right only to have a lack luster hunt.
It's the days/hunts that start off bad where you are late getting there, weather is cruddy, forgetting something and ect... to where you wonder why you even botherto go hunting that day. Those are the days that usually end up being greathunts.
Or getting off work an hour ot two earlier then normal and it wasn't planned to go hunting that afternoon. My unplanned hunts are usually better then a lot of my planned hunts.
Must be because Idon't have ashigh ofexpectationsas I do of myplanned hunt. Any good that comes out of the hunt makes it a great hunt.
