Any Hunters on here?

Thought we hunters needed a thread, trade some advice or tips on getting in shape for this season.

Anybody looking forward to having more fun than usual out in the woods this year or next year?

I am looking forward to being able to hold up my .30-06 without feeling like I'm dying. And hiking in with my blind and gear will be soooooo much easier this year!!!

Hoping to be able to walk better when doing my pheasant hunting this year ! :clap2:

My DH and I coon hunt. Let me tell you, the dogs can cover a LOT of ground, and it's no easy task at 285 to walk through a plowed field, or through the underbrush in a draw, when you're covering 5 or 6 miles in an evening... I'm looking forward to being able to keep up without being winded next season!

I am looking forward to being able to go deeper into my area for a better hunt. I am also looking forward to being able to gut and drag out my kill without stopping every hundred yards.

My DH and I do American Field trial...horseback/dog & (bird) hunting on a competive basis and just for fun. The weight loss has allowed me to ride more comfortably as well as no grunting from my horse. We do some walking bird hunting and since I'm on a walking exercise kick, I can only think it will help. I have more energy and feel lighter. I have a ways to go so I'm hopeful that it will feel even better and I'll have way more fun!!

I'm hoping to get banded in early October or so.... This should give me plenty of time to get over the initial pain etc.. for our November 15th opening of rifle season! I was with my husband last year when he got a monster 8 point. This buck was huge - bigger than most of the 10 + pointers on the pole! My turn!

I'm dragging my husband out for rifle season for the first time in his life this year, God willing. He can spot a deer anywhere, he's got eagle eyes. He doesn't really care for the cold much, so I guess I'll have to break down and get a bigger heater for the blind. I have never had problems with the cold, but who knows this year? Maybe with losing mroe weight it will start to bug me.

Anyone watch dream season? It's couples this time - interesting how much more hugging, kissing and arguing than in the past shows. lol
