I Think This Is The Year......... Maybe.........
« on: August 31, 2010, 02:43:00 PM »
I've been at this trad stuff since 2002 and love it all! Did not put any big game down yet but I'm still gonna give it my best this season. Had many "almosts" so I know it's a matter of time. Don't care much for tree stands or store bought blinds. Stalking and still hunting blows up my skirt. Wish Me Luck! Gonna need it.

Good luck.  I'm also looking to score my first trad kill.  I think we both will get ourselves "on the board" this year.

I am feeling that it is about time to kill something, too! I go at it like Mikey, on the ground and playing the wind.

I am wishing you luck, buddy, and hoping that the deer spirits will gift you for your perseverance.
It always feels to me as though I have been accepted into the Whole of Creation, and the purity of my heart rewarded, when a deer gives itself to me. I hope that you will feel that this year.

I've been shooting trad my whole life and finally got old enough to deer hunt in 1998. Since then i've only taken two deer but loved every minute of time spent out there!

Mikey,

Keep your skirt down and your spirits up!  Whatever you do dont hunt next to Ron or you definitely wont see anything.  I mean c'mon you see his stats?   :confused:    ;)  

Sorry Ron but you have to admit, it doesn't look good   :biglaugh:    :dunno:
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Don't feel too bad.  Trying to stalk and kill whitetails in the eastern woodlands is very difficult.  I admire your dedication.
