For me to hunt deer our property is in another town and about 3/4 mile walk. In two days l dropped 5 lbs. because I am a sweater. I decided to stay home as we have several flocks that often travel through our 5 acres here. I'll be 75 in Nov. and while I have the physical ability to do the walk, hunt and drag, I find being uncomfortable to be less appealing as I age. Besides, the turkeys were plentiful, somewhat predictable, etc., not to mention convenient. So when it is hot, too cold, or otherwise difficult to get "out there" at the end of the day I can stay home. We do have deer here and an occasional bear so even on tough days I can get out right in my "yard". Here's a pic my wife took from her home office window this summer.
