Hunting is something special that transcends all ages. I have noticed lately a lot of posters talking about school starting up again, and I know we have some older guys also just simply from all the knowledge and experience ya'll have. So I figured we could make a poll to see just what ages everyone is that are on here.
Trying to make the age groupings as to not offend anyone.
I am 21.
I made the age groupings to depict stage of life more. I know the years are not equal number of years. But I know the life of an 18 year old differs greatly from a 22 year old

Not old when compared to someone who got out 34 years ago... grrrrrrr
But upside is, I didn't read my obit in the newspaper when I got up this morning, so all is good!

33 here. Have two kiddos under two now. I'm in that age gap where time to hunt has gotten really tight, but not too far off from stopping hunting for myself and starting to hunt with/for my kids. Can't wait.

Hair loss sucks, but my memory is slipping now.
I had a lady come up to me at a restaurant the other day, she gave me a hug, asked how I was, etc.
She said goodbye and I sat there wondering g who it was till I was reminded that I sold her ranch last year.
My memory is bad. Can't wait till I hit my 3rd decade. I imagine I'll be in a walker and robe 24/7

The first time you hunted, there were no such things as licenses, you just had to ask God if you could hunt.

Yeah I am part of the majority as well. Been "hunting" with my dad since I was 4 and I'm 38 now. Loved every moment I've spent in the outdoors and hope to pass it on to my little man when he gets old enough in a couple of years.
