I got a pretty good deer hunting spot, so the goal is to kill a 150+ inch mule deer DIY spot and stalk on public land... we'll see how it goes.

The same as for the last 20 years. Kill and elk with my longbow   :rolleyes:  
My goal every year is to take 2 different species, not yet  :)

By main goal is to help my son get ready for his first year deer hunting traditional ony.

Get to as many 3D shoots as I can.

Kill my first traditional turkey.

Make up some kind of carrying device that will allow me to travel with the (1pc)longbow using my motorcycle.

Pretty simple really, just to spend more time in the woods. The last couple of years have really slowed down for me.

I'm going to try to change that. Again!

My goal is as my son gets his hunting license this February to teach him all I know, and to help him experience the fun and excitement of hunting and scouting and setting up. And have some awesome adventures hunting with him.

Simple for me!

1. Get my weight down to 170 lbs, so I can chase Elk better in the Idaho Mountains.

2. Take a Bear in the May hunt.

3. Take an Elk in Sept.

4. Take 3 whitetails this year.

5. Spend more time out west.

Pretty easy for me this year....to take my first whitetail with traditional equipment.  I have recently picked up a recurve and have been super pumped every since.  It puts a whole new level of fun back into the sport of archery, thanks to all for the helpful posts. JC
