[QUOTE="BSK, post: 3537314, member: 17"] deerhunter10, I think you're the type of mature buck hunter that will stick with it over time. I've found there are two primary types of [i]consistently successful[/i] mature buck hunters: those who do it as a personal challenge--to prove to themselves they can do it--and those who pursue mature bucks because they love the "chess match." Those who love the game--the pursuit--never tire of that game, and stick with it for most of their life. However, those who do it for the personal challenge, once they have been successful long enough to prove to themselves their successes aren't a fluke, tire of extreme efforts involved and often shift their hunting back towards "recreation"--hunting for fun. I think the difference is, those who do it for a challenge, do all the hard work because that is what they have to do to be successful, but eventually tire of it (as well as realize "the work" has taken the fun out of hunting). Those who do it because they love the pursuit, love and enjoy the work involved, and never tire of it because the work is part of the fun. [/QUOTE]
