i didnt get to learn much this year, shot the number one buck on the list openin day of early muzz with my bow, only had 8 more days of buck huntin left, was done buck huntin by oct 25th. granted, i did shoot the deer of my dreams but i do wish i could have hunted him alittle longer than just 2.5 weeks into the season.
1: find a way to keep those freeloadin deer off your freshly planted, luscious green, labor intesive foodplot until you are able to hunt it! (mine was completely eatin within ten days of first growth)
2: dont buy early muzzleloader tag, no matter how patternable a buck is when those tags go on sale! he wont have the same routine in a week.
3: just because hes 150 does not make him a shooter!
4: i learned deer season lasts a long damn time when you can no longer shoot a buck.
