1. Get my 5 and 3 year old daughters into shooting a trad bow
2. Get my first traditional kill (species dependent on where the army stations me next)

I want to get a javelina and a hog next month and keep developing my skills with the recurve.

Enjoy spending time with family and friends.

Kill my first turkey with my recurve.

And hopefully a mature buck.

Get in better shape in preparation for a backpack hunt

Make a bow that will pull in 60-70lb range

Take 2 trophy white-tails, with my own self made bow one on my personal land, and one on public land (while at college)

Manage funds better

Apply for the first time for a sheep tag ( I realize 4 and 5 don't go together, but 4 is so I can do 5

)

Find some sheds

Make myself more home in the woods, and be a better conservationist/game manager

Take enough wild game so I don't have to go the store for meat.

Learn how to use a mapping gps to its fullest potential

Complete my retriever's training so he will be a jam up duck dog

Relax and enjoy myself more

Work on building my custom arrow business and to take a deer with my longbow this fall.

Altiman94 · « **Reply #66 on:** January 30, 2011, 12:14:00 AM »

Mine are:

1) Spend more time scouting the public land
2) Take my first deer with the recurve
3) Spend more time shooting
4) Take a turkey with the recurve

I moved to a new area in August, so I didn't do a very good job scouting due to getting acclimated to a new job. I've found some decent areas now, so I need to expand on what I've found. There's over 13,500 acres of public land within 5 miles of my place.

Hunting wise: work as hard as I can to help 16 hunters get mature bears this spring. That's pretty much it for now!

Life and family: "try" and become a better person every day, and father to my children. Probably wouldn't hurt to step up in the husband department either!

joe ashton · « **Reply #69 on:** January 30, 2011, 06:47:00 PM »

Javalina in March

elk(either sex)

mule deer -- I'll also have a Colo bear tag

2 whitetails please

My goal for 2010 was to actually call in and kill a Michigan coyote with my recurve.

Well, I was going to revive the goal for 2011, because it didn`t happen in 2010. I have come to the realization that it would be easier to catch a Sasquatch.

My new goal is to simply hunt hard and shoot straight.

lbows · « **Reply #71 on:** January 30, 2011, 08:22:00 PM »

To go on a pig hunt, and get more involved in the MLA.

Dave Alaxanian · « **Reply #72 on:** January 30, 2011, 08:42:00 PM »

My goals for 2011 are:
1-To be thankful for every chance I'm given to be in the woods.
2-To enjoy the chase and smile when I'm outsmarted--AGAIN.
3-To sit patiently in my truck outside my brothers house when he's 20 min. late for the 3rd. time and be grateful we can still hunt together.
4-To watch a sunrise and sunset with my recurve in my hand and thank my God for being as blessed as I am.
5-To never question or compare my choice of the animal I choose to take as my goals are just that ---MY GOALS!!!!!!!!!

The cinnamon bear that I saw and filmed on my bait last year. I would like to arrow a moose this year. As Manitoba said be a better husband and father to my family.

To shoot my first mule deer. This will be my 5th year trying....those buggers sure have my number, but it's been a blast hunting them.
