THURSDAY'S THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK

I have been shooting my bow a lot over the past couple of weeks and I have
a big 3D shoot coming up on Saturday. In fact, I have been doing a lot of
preparation for our archery season which opens up on Sep 18. Part of that
preparation includes writing down all the days I will be able to hunt,
which stands I’ll want to be in on each day (assuming wind conditions are
right), and whether I’ll be using scents, calls, or decoys.
This is not a cut-in-stone agenda but rather a general plan of attack that
I can shuffle around however I want based on any number of things. Weather,
food sources, deer sign, and hunter movement are just a few things that
could cause me to alter my battle plan.
Here’s my THOUGHT OF THE WEEK…Many hunters look forward to the hunting
season and have several stand locations to choose from every day. However,
very few take the time to plot out their hunting strategy in advance. Give
it a try and you’ll find you won’t over-hunt stands and you'll gain more
confidence for the upcoming season.
