Well football starts today and I’m in full blown deer hunting mode now. All of us have unique circumstances of where, how and how often we can hunt but I enjoy reading about your personal goals for this hunting season. Some of y’all may not have a goal other than to enjoy Gods creation and that is certainly one of mine!l as well! Here are mine
1- Share a few hunts with my girls. They don’t like cold mornings but I manage to get them to with me a couple of times every year.
2- Hunt with friends. I am solo hunter most of the time but I really enjoy sharing hunts with my good friends. A couple of us take a trip somewhere every year and there’s nothing better than telling stories around a camp fire after a full days hunt.
3- This is the serious goal. Find a couple of mature bucks on public land and kill a couple of them. Honestly I’d be thrilled with 1. I went scouting last week and put out cams for the first time. I’m excited to see what might be out there and start putting the puzzle together to get one on the ground.

Good luck brother, hope you accomplish all of those and more! I just want to have some good times in the woods with my lil man and buddies. I hope to be blessed to see a few deer, have a lot of laughs, fellowship and try to remember to thank the lord for every moment of it! If I kill a deer that will be only a bonus.

I'm gonna try to relax a lil more and not take it so serious It's always been a hard grind I'm slap wore out when it ends. I'm fortunate to have land all around my house and I usually go 5 days a week if only for an hour., if im tired this year im sleeping in unless conditions r great..i'm also gonna try and let my daughter get her fist this year. GOOD LUCK to all and Roll Tide

We need to get together and hunt anyway. I don’t know how we are both in Calera and have never met each other.

1. Kill at least "a deer" with my bow (keep the streak alive) 2. Kill 3 "racked" bucks. I don't have any specifics, just "something I'd mount".

In the following order...
Enjoy the woods, the fellowship, and the time spent with others.
Get each of my boys an opportunity at a nice buck
Kill a deer with my bow
Oh, and get invited to OO’s trophy rich grounds and shoot both a spike and a doe. If I can get a lesson in martial arts and paintball while I’m there, even better.

Well I thought I had my goals set a long time ago but events keep happening so they are changing on a daily basis. Just found out the guy that owns the land I hunt, his wife has stage 4 colon cancer. It kills my soul. As of now.....
Do all the work I can on his land and kill some deer so I can give him the meat since he won't be doing much hunting at all.
I have a cousin in Tampa that just retired who has never killed a decent deer in Alabama. I hope to put him on one in Selma this year.
I plan to bait up some deer and take my 4 year old daughter and let her watch and try to teach her what to do and what not to do.
If I can get myself some meat and a decent buck this year that would be an added bonus. I had a pretty good year last season so if I have a down year for myself this year I ain't gonna be bitter about it.
In the long term I would like to start filming and editing my hunts. A lot of my hunting is done on public land all over lower Alabama, and I usually limit out with decent deer every year. If I had a camera, it would make the hunt more challenging.

This will be my 12th year hunting. I'm still waiting to kill an 8 pointer.

Two goals: 1. Have fun. 2. Get a new personal best.
That 2nd goal may or may not happen but I think the first should. I do need to actually shoot a deer this year. My wife’s best friend wants to cook in the Wild Game Cookoff. No hunters in her family and she needs a couple blackstraps for her recipe.

On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”
