Here's what I've learned:

1. Just when you think you've got deer figured out, they'll throw you for a loop (I learned that LONG ago, but for some reason, I just can't beat it into my head)
2. Just because you took the time, effort, and money to plant corn, it doesn't mean that a "good" buck will come to it in the daylight!
3. Somebody flipped a switch at New Year's. Like usual, the post-rut was worthless (other than seeing a few does and spikes), but just because the season's open I HAVE to go hunting.
4. As an avid bowhunter, ALWAYS take an extra "critter arrow" with you (I've done this for a few years and it's a lot of fun!).
