Tracting?I spent 2 years straight being hunted in Kentucky. Wildest adventure I’ve ever been on.
Last year I went the whole season 24 days plus 4 days of scouting. A lot of the time I was there by myself Loved itQuestion of the Day .... How many days in a row have you spent hunting?
Full days, hunting morning and evening. Camping in the woods, not driving from home.
Let's hear about it. Were you ultimately successful?
Are you retired? I can't wait!10-day in a row two to three times a year in the wall tents on different hunts each year. Average 45+ days a year on the mountain in the wall tents hunting each year.
Yes I am.Are you retired? I can't wait!
Tell us how many ducks fell after dark that year...with Art Henderson on your tail!Back in my High School days, I made it a goal to hunt ducks every day of the season. 90+ days!
I did it (yeah?) and still managed good grades and church attendance to keep the parents happy.
Admittedly, I was pretty happy when the season ended. Whew

Way to many years ago I had the greatest duck/goose lease about 15 minutes from college at a dirt cheap cost as I was poor but loved to hunt. I shot and ate so damm many ducks I rarely shoot them anymore. I didn't hunt every day, but I did hunt any morning or afternoon that looked good. I was called the duck guy in the dorms and had debreasted ducks/geese stuffed in anyones freezer that would allow me space and would give away as much as someone would take, until I got home to drop off another load. My whole class schedule in the fall semester was either classes from 10am-3pm or night classes. Possession limit never crossed my mine back then and I can't remember ever getting checked by anyone. Regardless none of them went to waste and we ate a ton of duck/goose jerky. Still today we have most of our geese turned into jerky or sticks.Back in my High School days, I made it a goal to hunt ducks every day of the season. 90+ days!

Yep. Them hunts you work the hardest at and do things that others would never try make the best memories. The memories of them hunts and animals are the ones you remember and are most proud of. It is the memories and not the inches that really count.24 days. Had 423 miles on my watch that season. Killed a bull on day 22 and my buddy killed on day 24. Not my best bull but the one I'm most proud of.
yes newly retired last year hoping for more this yearAre you retired? I can't wait!
Good god man... that's an average of roughly 17.5 miles a day, that's a decent pace for the hiking the Continental Divide Trail.24 days. Had 423 miles on my watch that season. Killed a bull on day 22 and my buddy killed on day 24. Not my best bull but the one I'm most proud of.
