I'm trad only re: archery. This is the first year I didn't hunt the rifle season...actually, I did hunt the rifle season, but with a bow. For 15 years before this year, I chased desert muleys in SE NM. Since moving to OK, I've had to recalibrate my thinking A BUNCH. Those muleys in the sand dunes are cake compared to whitetails! But I probably had more fun this year, even missing the only shot I got, than I've ever had hunting. I had deer from 9 feet on out...just didn't get an opportunity until last night. Shot right over her back at 23 yards. Oh well. Still had a great trad-only season. I guess all those rifles in the gun safe are getting lonely!
