Well headed out tomorrow for our annual deer hunt. Second year since my dad passed, he was always a big part of things, was always famous for his "primetime" phone calls, usually 15 minutes before legal light ended while you're watching a line or waiting for a big buck to show up. He lived and breathed hunting, and always enjoyed the success of others, as much as his own.
I probably shouldn't be going, I have so much work to do, but life is short, I can't really miss it, I will deal with the consequences later.
I have some new ideas this year, some spots I want to check, as usual I am going in blind, I don't have time to scout. I haven't killed a whitetail in 6 years, after many successful hunts, I have become extremely fussy, and with a freezer full of elk this year I will likely be more fussy.
I have a fresh coat of winter camo on the samurai, it's a novelty thing I suppose, but I do plan on using it as a blind.
Anyway i hope to have some stories and photos to share when I get back. To all the Alberta Sportsmen I wish you the best of luck in the dwindling hours of the 2013 hunting season.
