hunt all you can while you are young. you will find your self not caring as much for it when you get older.

Ya I don't do anything serious about it anymore. None a that crawlin out a bed in the morning or sittin out there in the cold weather. It's all casual now as I feel like takin a break from the barn work.

I do miss small game huntin though, but the coyotes have cleaned out all the rabbits and birds around here. Not to mention that hunt clubs have leased up all the ground. I refuse to pay to hunt. I will work and help out around farms gladly, but i won't pay money.

same here, this year when we kill a deer instead of sinking the gut pile in the pond we are gonna toss them in the middle of a field at night for the coyotes. I figure me and the 7mm rem mag in the edge of the wood line should help solve the coyote problem.

We used to dump about 15 yoters a night when I was a kid. Every year when the cows started dropping calves my little brother and I would sit up in the loft of the barn in our sleeping bags with a spot light and a 22-250. After birth is like crack for coyotes.
