I guess this one will be my 14th deer season if my math is correct. Only started taking it serious about 3 years ago. Started deer hunting when I was 11. I have missed 3 seasons since I started hunting, one because I was in boot camp, the next because I was in Iraq, and then another because I was at a training excercise.
In the last 3 years I have learned more about deer hunting then the other 11 years combined. After my military experiences, hunting became way more than a hobby for me. I am only 24 years old and once I turned 21 it started becoming an addiction. Now it seems like every year I want to learn more than the last season. And it seems like every season that goes by I become more addicted to deer hunting.
I have hunted small game since I was probably seven years old.
