Well stonegod, not sure where you think I haven't hunted , or made any kills, as for yrs, like almost 30 yrs, I used to hunt almost 60 to 90 days an yr, 900 plus hr a yr in a tree, and hunted up to 7 states a yr
I've killed a LOT of deer in my yrs, far more than most hunters will in a lifetime
I admit, last 3 seasons, I have not hunted like I used to
BUT I have been out almost every day of legal hunting , maybe I hunt more now to find trespassers, than to kill a deer, as like I said last 3 yr, I have had very little desire to kill an average deer, or a deer at all
but I still put many hrs in , do a crap(did) a crap work of QDM; , trying to make mynhunting spot as good as it could be
killing a deer has been very easy for me if I really wanted to
never had a problem killing a seer if and when I wanted one
got bored with just killing deer, and became very selective of what I kill, or would kill, as the yrs went by
and honestly have had enough
as of right now, I honestly don't plan to hunt next season for deer
as a fact, my x bow is getting sold, have a buyer that wants it, and I don't /cannot shoot my compound any more, so that is for sale too
so?
if you ask me, Even in my piss poor desire to hunt, I still logged more hrs in the woods, than you, last few yrs, and I have passed on a ffew hundred deer in that time
not sure whats taking you so long to kill that buck, LOL
its not that hard, all the more so in a state that allows you to hunt over bait?
