Any of yall had the issue of losing interest in hunting over the years? I know its probably an odd question to ask considering I'm on a hunting forum, but I've hunted the same property out in West Texas since I was 12 and it's just not the same. Used to wake up at 4 or 5 am wide eyed but now it feels like if like a chore. Don't get me wrong, seeing a big ole mature mulie still gets me going. But getting there is the issue. Maybe I'm rambling but was something I've been thinking about today. New scenery perhaps?

I am tired of hunting small bodied 130"-150" west Texas deer. Gave up the lease.
BUT any hunting out of state for elk, mule deer, and big whitetail is a different story!
I shot 2 big does one weighing 175, and a big framed 10 in Kansas this year. After eating Kansas steaks I really don't care for hunting in west Texas, that said I have some land out side of Sweetwater that is pretty good, but I haven't even hunted it this year.
I will never get tired of hunting, just get tired of the same o'l thing every year out there.

My son has been old enough to hunt with me that past two season and that has helped a lot. I find myself enjoying dove and duck hunting much more than deer these days really. I still love sitting in the blind watching the sun come up and the world come awake around me. It's my church really, it's where I feel at peace and any worries I have don't seem all that bad.
