Music you listen to while on the way to your hunting spot?


Hunt or be Hunted

Recommended Posts

Being a very focused person, the weather is what I am most interested in, so I will start listening to one AM-station news channel, and after I get a thorough weather report from them, I will switch to another AM-station news channel, and hear their version as well.

From that point on, I will shut off the radio and go over in my mind how I expect this hunt to go.

Normally the first thing I will do, after refueling, is to pull into one of my favorite camping spots and set up my tent, to claim the spot. So I will visualized doing that. Normally it just amounts to spreading a big tarp, setting up the tent, spreading a smaller tarp, and setting up a camp chair and sun umbrella.

Next thing I will do is load the bow quiver or unlock the rifle and put cartridges into my left shirt pocket, then head out to do some live road scouting. So I will visualize that, and think about the places that I intend to hunt.

When I have thought through all that detail, then I will put on some music on my CD player, usually something relaxing, popular music. My dad loved country music but I think I burned out on it as a kid. I still remember Johnny Cash and "I fell into a burning ring of fire." When I asked my dad what that burning ring of fire was he said awe don't worry about it now.

On the way back home it is the opposite. Then I will listen to music all along the way. Sometimes even Inagoddadavida. It's a love song actually, about being in the garden of eden, which is a girl, of course. And all the usual lies about being true etc.
