AvonLKHunter Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Our season opened here in Ohio the beginning of October. I waited all year for it to arrive, i was very excited. We spend alot of time and money preparing my property during the summer months with food plots, feeders, and our best hobby the cameras with the endless number of photos we get. Once the season started I was pumped, I had over 12 different bucks on film and could not wait to get in the stand. Well after not seeing to many bucks in October, November came along and on the first weekend we went my buddy shot a nice 8pt on Friday night and I shot a big 8 on Sunday morning. After all the celebrating and showing off our pics its finally hitting me that my season is over. It was my best ever but the SHORTEST one too. I can still shoot 2 does but i really have no need for the meat. I just hate for it to be over, the weather is just perfect for sitting in a stand nice and cold. I guess I have to wait for next year. Just needed to vent, cause the wife just dont understand and she is getting sick of hearing about it. Good luck to all of you.... Its going to be a really LONG winter...

PAbowhunter86 Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Re: I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!!! If you want to be out in the stands that much go get a camera and try to take some nice bucks on film or something like that. Dont just sit at home because you have a buck already go walk around see where the deer are this time of year. pratice with your bow some more. Winter 3d should be starting go do that. There is penty of things to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thayer Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Re: I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!!! Share the harvest! Do your job to forward our heritage. You won't forget the feeling of being told Thank You! from a hungry person or facility that caters to helping the poor. Get your camera out and photo those bucks and learn how they move throughout the season, man, you have got to capture your opportunities!

Stinger-Hunter Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Re: I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!!! Set up blinds, more stands. Take pictures, Scout some more. Just walk through the woods. Just sit there and take a nap. I live in the city, man. If I could go out in the woods in less than 10 or 15 minutes, I'd be out there all day and night. start hunting coyotes or something.

Tominator Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Re: I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND!!!! OK Jim, a few things here: #1-- I can relate. I shot my buck on the 3rd so my motivation to get out is a little down. Personally, I like finishing early because I'm not a gun hunter and I have less anxiety if I have a buck in the freezer by gun season. #2--You could always guide Tom and I on your ground, maybe video Tom killing one of your home-grown monsters. #3--Come down to Licking county with my buddy Shawn (the Avon Lake cop) when we chase bunnies and birds. Hang in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
