I would like to gain more confidence in talking to land owners. I talk to customers all day long with all the confidence in the world, (my company sells good stuff, so its easy). When it comes to having the guts to get shot down 90% of the time, I struggle. I desperately need hunting ground and I cant get myself to knock on doors. Dad has always came through with the old farmers he knew, they are passing rapidly and so are my privelages. Thats my goal!

Manitoba...way to go!!! You already have all the skills you need, it is just a matter of fine tuning your priorities. Hang on loosely. Don`t let your wife see any fear, or she will eat you.
Congrats!  :thumbsup:  

The new skill I want to learn is how to consistently trap coyotes.

I am going to learn how to make wood arrows everything from tapered to footed, I am going to start make my own arm guards and quivers, maybe work on the GPS.

I would really like to hone my skills with topo map and compass. There are alot of big woods around here and it would be a confidence booster to know you could get in and out without trouble. So land navigation would be on the top of my list.  Jason

There are way too many things that I want to learn.  For this coming year however I think I will keep it to metal working in general with knife making a specific focus.

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

ive already started before 2011 , im trying to learn how to sharpen my own broadheads and knives instead of having someone else do it for me. this is a skill that has escaped me most of my adult life so far. i should have learned to do this a long time ago. ruddy

I'm going to buy a whip & learn how to crack it. So whip cracking will be my new skill for 2011.
