Goals for the season!!!

[wisconsinteacher]

Well with deer, turkey, and small game season opening tomorrow, I have my goals set for the season.  What are yours?

Assist youth on black bear hunt, help wife in her first year of bow hunting, shoot my first deer with a trad bow, shoot a fall turkey.  HAVE FUN!!!  These are the four goals I have.  My wife will be using a compound, but taking someone deer hunting is new for me.  I hope she gets one.  So far bear hunting, we have passed on 3 bears and have not hunted much due to school and weather.  I have been shooting my recurve a lot and feel good out to 20 yards.  I don't know if I will carry it 100% of the time, I still like my compound.  As far as the turkey goes, it is last, but if one walks by it is in trouble.  Good luck and hunt safe.

I simply want to take my first trad deer.  A turkey would be nice too though : )

2. Get in at least 23 hunts in KY by Oct. 31st
3. Get in at least 9 hunts in IN before the 12th of November.
4. Kill the first deer with traditional since I moved to compounds in 1975.
5. I'd like to fill two tags in KY and one in IN. All with "The Stick".

Find enough information to take my first hog hunt sometime in early spring. Cheap, spot and stalk on public land with good numbers of hogs.

[NoCams]

To double with Miss Hope & Faith ! We only got 4 days to do it, so it will be tough. Season opens for us on Sept 26th. Gonna be a hot one too ! 94 degrees here tomorrow.

After that, to see Mason get one with his osage selfbow then his new Shrew Classic Hunter he got at Compton this past summer.

Start connecting with the bow on the coyotes. Im in California so just getting a buck in range. Get a snow shoe then i will have a California slam on the rabbits with my bow. Have fun.

My goal is to hunt more this year and try to not let work get in the way like it usually does.

[bolong]

My goal is about like ChuckC's. Spend as much time as possible in the woods and completely forget about work while I'm out there. If I kill something, that will just be a bonus.

[Forrest Creature 1]

Spend time in the woods with some good friends and maybe get my son to sit still long enough to go watch some deer.  

[trad_bowhunter1965]

I have a Bear Tag and 5 Bobcat tags in my pocket and it will be Waterfowl season soon, Deer season over for me had a great time.

[J-dog]

To kill all my families meat with bow - 3 is the magic number for the freezer. Will take more but would like to do 3 deer with the bow.
