Gotta live for the season even if it is still 90 degrees.

Our season doesn't open until Oct.1. You guys are lucky but I am not sure I would want to hunt in the warm weather. Our moose season opens the middle of Sept. and it is often too warm for the first two weeks.  :dunno:

Mike I don't know how you can do it, missing a season like that much less two! I missed one deer season about 6 yrs ago when I was building my house and it about killed me not going. I took 1 shot at a deer out of the basement of the new house and that was the jist of my season! As for the question at hand YES, been getting my gear together and checkin it out gonna put the camerea in a few new spots and see if thats where I want my stands at this year. I have been shooting my hunting bow for a couple months now and put a practice stand up in the back yard last week. Lets do it!!

I have emergency hernia surgery this Monday... and the reason it's an emergency is 'cause I gotta do it quick so I'll be at 100% to hunt deer in October!

I'm headed south, to Florida in Sept, for a combo deer / hog hunt, and I can't wait. I've been to Florida 3x in the past 15 years (Disney, Spring break, etc.), and each time thought, "I would love to hunt that swampland." So this year I am! Being a Yankee, I'm sure the heat will get me, but I'm psyched! I'm also planning on locating a couple of Cuban cigars!!!!

I'm still trying to pick a bow. It gets harder every year, but I'm leaning toward something Rose Oak.

Looking forward to it.  I'm preparing by sitting on the deck naked at dusk and building up my mosquito tolerance.  I much prefer the time around Halloween, but go whenever I get the chance.

I'm shooting everyday, getting ready to build a few blinds and put out some late summer/fall food plots. I leave stands in certain places every year. Also headed to MN in Sept for a black bear hunt. I am more than excited for absolutely any reason to be in a tree with a stick and a string after any critter.

My son walked up to me yesterday with a big grin on his face and said "Only a bit over 2 months to go".  He is 28 and his excitement its still the best part of it all!

Gonna hang trail cams next week.  Wish it wasn't 101 here every day!

Some of my friends fish all summer long.

I start getting ready for deer season!
