Question How big is your hunting party?

I was just curious to how many people are in your hunting party.

We average around 10 people each year.

0 just the way I like it! I dispise hunting with others, you never have to worry if they are staying where they are supposed to be or if they are keeping quite..I just assume to hunt alone!

1 counting me and no one else. I can't stand hunting with others. It annoys me, cause if I wanna stay longer they bitch until we end up leaving cause they're cold.

Generally we don't hunt in a party. We hunt based on time constraints and type of license. Total number of hunters in our group is less than five on many thousands of acres.

Usually 3 or 4 My Dad, Brother and Uncle and we all pretty much get along. My dad used to have a hard time sitting still, but a few years back he shot a monster 11 point and has been pretty good about sitting since then.

Usually 8 guys in our hunting camp but we hunt individually and have our own ladder stands. The exception being a few drives we do after everyone's had a couple of days to hunt on their own. Usually 6 of us participate in the drives. Usually 3 standers and 3 drivers and we push overgrown clear cuts. Big woods. No agriculture.

If I'm ground blind hunting, I'd like to hunt alone; If I'm using my climber, I don't mind having another in the woods just in case something happens. I usually have one trip every year to North Florida, about 900 miles round trip, that I go alone and hunt for a week. The time alone in the woods and in the cabin is relaxing.

Me and my 3 brothers will be at camp. We all still hunt on our own though and rarely run into each other. Big woods hunting and we like it that way.

It grows a bit more each year now.

Thru various additions, one subtraction and more additions we are at 10 this year.

Anyone know a good stripper for S. IL?
