I don't know how much ill hunt this year. Ill be gone 24 days in sept on a hunt, and not sure how much free time ill have in November. I didn't see any good deer last year, hopefully something good will show up this year. Ill know how excited I will be when I pull game cam pics in October.

Limited on days, but I'll probably hunt a little harder than your average whitetail hunter for a week in October. Then I'll kick back for deer season and hunt easy.

Usually hunt 30-40 days in whitetail season. Also planning a 10 day elk hunt in Alberta this fall and a week chasing bears in Northern Ontario. Than probably put in 20 days hunting coyote from Jan to March with a few days thrown in hunting grouse and snowshoe hares.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

I am glad someone enjoys them. Many just complain because I have my phone in the stand Many times I feel like yelling at myself that I should have taken the shot too

I'm not planning on hunting very hard for whitetails at all. want to shoot a few with a bow then i'll be satisfied. Have access to a property that has some nice sika on it so i'll be after those in sept/October
I'm planning on hunting very hard for mule deer.
after that season ends, I'll pretty much focus on shooting ducks
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

How hard I will hunt will be highly dependent on when I can finish this damned remodel. I swear, I will never do this ever again.

I actually hunt almost everyday of deer season, this is easy with a feeder 150 yards out of my office window. I have never shot a whitetail there but employees and my kids have shot a few. If a monster walks out, I just might suddenly take off for a few hours. A few axis have stopped at that feeder, and they never left again. I am usually and the lease or family property every weekend, with the exception of a few.

I will hunt often but not hard. I usually read a book and miss the deer coming in. I look up and all the sudden they are there. Then I half to decide if there is a shooter and if so how good is the book. My wife on the other hand is serious. She quit sitting with me 4 years ago because I'm not serious. Lol
