Lone hunters ?

[moleman]

Just curious how many out there are lone hunters, who just prefer to go it alone when hunting?

[WhiteBeard121]

99 percent of my hunting (and fishing) are alone. Don't mind if someone goes along, but enjoy the solitude immensely.

I love having to NOT meet me at x at mid day.
I like having pards who i can call if i need help.
I do not like getting back to rig at end of day with pard "who knows where" and having to wait and worry.

I have no choice to be a lone hunter. I'm the only person I k ow in my area that's hunts trad. I would enjoy company from time to time if it where available

[jsweka]

I hunt a lot with my brother-in-law (compound shooter, but a good guy) and my wife likes the fact that someone will know where I am in case something should happen, but I honestly do still prefer the freedom of hunting on my own.

99% of the time but as i get older i think i would like someone to hunt with once in awhile trips more i still like being a lone wolf when im close to home

I prefer to do stuff with my hunting partner, we will split up etc but I enjoy it more with someone to share it with more and more it includes my 3yr old son

I hunt and fish alone 99% of the time. It's just how it works out. I've done things my way so long now doubt I could hunt with someone all the time.

[Bear Heart]

I have mostly been alone.  I enjoy having a buddy at camp to share the days stories.

I would say 90% of my time is spent alone. Even when I go with someone we split up a pretty good ways and do our own thing. I just enjoy the solitude.

[Wannabe1]

Yep, prefer to go it alone myself.  

[Huh]

Alone is great, but sharing is good too.  

"compound shooter, but a good guy" - ha, classic!

Iv had the same hunting partner for yrs he hunts with a compound but bought my rt hand sunset hill. I wouldnt consider hunting alone. There is some deep wilderness areas in humbolt trinity co. You need a gps and someone who knows where you are at hand. Some guy walked into the boonies and died fromhypothermia.his dog survived my 2 cents

I am naturally a loner while hunting, but enjoy sharing a camp.  It's just me, not many people hunt at my pace in the mountains.

I enjoy hunting alone when I'm hunting for myself...lately I've been introducing people to turkey hunting and it's been a blast as well  

[Thumper Dunker]

When I go calling I like to be buy myself. Rabbit and other stuff its fun to have a buddy along.If its been real nutty at work I realy need a day to my self and maybe the dog.

I am a Lone Hunter, every once and while a nephew or brother will go, but pretty much on my own.  I always leave print a topo map of where I am hunting and mark it and leave it on dining room table and wife knows where I am.  Also, I put a map on the dashboard of truck when I am hunting.  I do this to 1) if something happens the CPO or whomever knows where to look and 2) if another hunter come's in, he/she knows where I am so as not to bump one another.

[randy grider]

i like being alone, but it worries my wife, and she is right, someone should be nearby, especially tree stand hunting. I do enjoy lunch and supper with hunting buds to swap stories

[centaur]

I have hunted alone for many years. The very few times I hunt with someone else, it feels really strange. I enjoy the solitude of the woods.

[MCNSC]

The older I get, the more I like hunting with someone else. Preferably that person would be younger and stronger.
