There have been 14 weeks from October1 until January 7.

I didn't keep track but given this time frame plus last weekend and this weekend being doe and spike I would say I hunted 14 of the 16 weekends. On average I got 4 sits per weekend with Thanksgiving and Christmas a little more so I'm guessing about 60 sits on weekends. I didn't hunt as much during the week as last year as I didn't have a good buck to hunt at that place. But I would say I did another 6 or 7 hunts during the week. So I'm going to go with 70 hunts including what I'll do this weekend. I personally only shot 2 does but "guided" both of my sons for their bucks and a few does and helped a couple of others. I would say I saw about 9 deer die this year.

Awesome! That’s all I took was two does myself.

Ok. So I hope you got more than one bro!

Knocked one down on a long shot. The buggers ran like crazy and took off 30 yards ahead of us. Always fun watching the dogs work the fields.

In 1996 we went pheasant hunting up in the pan handle. It had snowed and the wind had blown grass over and it had frozen into tunnels.
The pheasant would run down these “tunnels” and then explode out of the snow when they reached the end. He was a blast! Even being the teens and not having dogs. I got three roosters that day and can’t remember a better eating bird.

I’m not surprised Dude. You’re on point on some of the muggiest, mosquitoe infested days known to man. I’m trying to fight the old man and would have to have someone like you to get me out there in the summer. Kudos!!!

lol. Being in a hog killin contest helped with motivation.

Is the wife or girlfriend glad to get rid of y’all for a while or do they go with ya?

This is definitely a conundrum. God knows we could use a break from you fellas…a break from the constant litany of “I’m hungry, what is there to eat?” or “Can you make me a glass of iced tea?” and my favorite, “Where do we keep the…?”

On the other hand, hunting with my husband is the best gig around. He is my gun toter, bird boy, shell boy, and cabana boy all rolled into one. And he even carries an extra roll of toilet paper in the truck just for me.

[Hogmauler]

lol! So true! Where would he be without you?
