Default left hanging - yet again

For the last 4 years I have been hunting solo due to people backing out on their commitment to go hunting with me. I give them at least 6 months notice, and then something comes up. This has happened with both friends and family, and apears to already be happening this year. I dont mind hunting solo, but I kinda wonder if this also happens to the rest of you guys too.

I would rather hunt solo. Consider that your fortunes have changed....

I hunt solo for migratory game birds all the time. I would rather have it that way. My hunting partner is my uncle when it comes to deer hunting but if something was to happen that he couldn’t join me for deer hunting then I would go solo with out a doubt.

I had the same problem.
For years whether it was hunting or fishing We would plan a trip talk about and when it came time to plunk down the cash everyone had an excuse.
now I just do it on my owm and have more fun. I only have to worry or please myself.

I'm always having problems like this and not just hunting. I've just come to the conclusion that I'll be doing whatever it is by myself and if someone shows the more the merrier(except in bow hunting, then I prefer to be alone).

I pretty much hunt with my dad but our hunting party has been decreasing each year.
