No idea. A lot of it was an hour before work, an hour after work.
3 of the 4 I shot were weekdays.

I only hunted 1 afternoon during bow season but hunted every weekend after gun season opened including 9 days of the 2 weeks I was off at Christmas/New Years.

Hunted less this year than any in the past 10 years. I might have gotten 9 or 10 half day or less sits in.

Sat 3 times I think. Small kids and no wife at home I have a few times just thought about quitting hunting/feeding/planting for critters all together. Don't know what else to do that I give a rip about as a hobby.

Count the number of days from 1st day of muzzle loader season until today and subtract 8 or 10, that will give you my number of days hunted. I don't feel the least bit guilty. Killed 0 deer, probably could've killed 50. There was only 1 that mattered, saw him 3 times but couldn't close the deal. He was still on the go about 10 days ago, hope he made it. I've got plenty of pictures of him to look at until next year, he's a goodun, probably go about 150"

I think I sat 15 or 16 hunts. Got 2 bucks on the ground by January 1st and didn't go any more after that. Great season!

Deer, from the beginning of bow season in Texas to the end of deer season in Bama, subtract maybe 15 days. Hogs and yotes the rest of the year. I left Bama early afternoon and I’m in a hotel room in Vicksburg.
