Enjoy the season and get out as much as possible. Unfortunately my Dad’s health is not going to allow him to hunt this year. So my U.P. Camp is pretty much done. So this season is gonna be different for me.

I'm just planning to enjoy another deer season and spend as much time as possible on stand and if possible shoot a good buck.

Only way you could do that is if they added more days to Oct and nov

Kill a Michigan 6.5yo, I'll settle for anything over 4.5 or 140" though.

Harvest more venison than I did last year. Got too complacent and spent more time on the rivers and not in the woods.

Soak up plenty of outdoor time. Give the taxi a call.

Hey everyone! What are your goals for the upcoming season? I have 2 goals myself;

Since I recently purchased my first saddle, I would like to try more/different areas and get comfortable climbing trees.

My second is to focus on shifting bad hunting days into learning days and try new tactics and strategies. I would like to get comfortable just doing something different than just sitting in the same tree day-after-day.

What are your goals?

Help my granddaughter her first deer.

 

[Groundsize]

Hunt as much as I can in iowa this year during bow season.

also possibly use both my buck combo tags on spike horns in Hillsdale. Would be a first.

1. Help dad if he wants to hunt after Shoulder surgery. Or if he wants to just be out we can hunt together and i will be the trigger man

2. Actually hunt!! Work has been insane, wrapping up a 2.5 year project, worked alot of 50-60 hour weeks this year and its finally slowing down some. I just wanna be away from work and enjoy life!

3. Make sure all treestands and set ups are SAFE. It's time to Pre Flight check them all.

4. Continue to focus on ground hunts, I took does in December about 40 yards away behind an old tree stump last season. LOVE IT👍👍👍

Enjoy every minute in the deer woods like they were my last.
Chute a thirty pointer.
Fill my freezer.
Not get lost.
Not leave any skid marks in my skivvies.

At least I can enjoy my time in the woods

 

[Lumberman]

1. Hopefully he able to get out a few times and enjoy the woods. Looks like another super busy fall for me.

2. Get all the kids out for youth season and try and pop a couple more cherrys.

3. shoot a 30pter!

4. I hope I get lost.

Goals are fairly consistent from year to year for me.
Number one ... put venison in the freezer!!!!
Two... hunt NeLP state land hard during the rut and hope for a few sightings/chances at a mature buck.
Three ... (This one's new) Take my first deer ever with a crossbow since my shoulder is preventing me from shooting the compound.
