So, I've been to the range 5 times in the last week, and I went for one drive to see how the logging has changed the face of the mountains where I hunt.  Next will be walking through individual slashes, followed with long nights of cleaning my rifle multiple times.  Why Can't it be Sept 10 already.  I should buy a bow lol

I am a meat hunter and I am always ready for fresh game meat.
Squirrel started August 1st (but the reds are still nursing young so I won't be hunting them until Oct).
Dove and Cottontail/Jackrabbit begin Sept. 1st. I will wait on bunnies until the first freeze.
Turkey (shotgun) starts Sept. 15th.
And Deer in Nov., Dec., and Jan. firearm/muzzleloader.
I am ready!
