No nearly as many as I want to. This thing called work keeps getting in the way.

I usually hunt one or two weekday evenings after work,and two to three times during the weekends. Sunday evenings are traditionally family dinner with my children so I stay home. After the time change I will get out Sunday evenings as I am in at a decent hour.I do lose my weekday evening hunts with time change.I guess 4.sits on average.

Really depends on my work load but most every chance I get, thankfully including Sundays with archery gear. I've got several good little spots closeby that I can slip into pretty quickly for a spur of the moment hunt.

I try to hunt 2 evenings a week and at least one morning on the weekend. Doesn't always work out with kids and sports but that's my goal.

Do the days that I'm day dreaming about hunting count too?

I voted for 1-2 days. I really don't know exactly. My lease is about 4hrs away and I cannot go every week but when I do go I try to go for 3-5 days at a time. I try to go at least once a month in the off season and more during deer season.

Retirement has its benefits this time of year. I get out almost everyday it doesn't rain...family matters are about the only other thing that gets in the way, If I could change anything it would be that I was more of a morning person. Mostly hunt afternoons...but turkeys are an all day, take then as they come proposition,

I voted 2-4....I'm retired and can go a lot. But getting older I find I can't do what I used to do, nor as often. I go when I feel like it or when things like the rut come into play. It also gets hard when you don't see to much....this year I have done well seeing deer and had a couple real close. But in the process I don't want to educate the critters so I have backed off a bit. I want to keep it fun and not make a job out of it. I also have to many other interests that take up time as well. You just can't do it all!!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

I voted 1 to 2! I might be able to get out more if I would really hurry after work, but hunting is suppose to be fun and relaxing...isn't it!!    :confused:    I would sure like to get out more though.

I try to hunt everyday, but usually only morning or afternoon. I just got in from this morning and saw a couple of good bucks and a doe, plus some big rubs, scrapes..lots of fresh sign. I really would like to go back this afternoon, but too far back in to make it again.

Durring deer season or all year? One or twice a week all year long.Deer season might take a vacation and spend a week or so.
