How many more years of deer hunting do you have left?

[QUOTE="Bass1090, post: 5541162, member: 11206"] Great thread! I’m 54 and was blessed to retire at 53. I am not in as good of shape as I should be but do exercise and try and stay healthy. This past season was tough on me as my hunting partner wasn’t able to go any. Our lease is three hours away and I think I hunted it 15 times alone, driving over, climbing a tree for an all day sit and then driving back. However, those 20 hr days did keep me from doing back to back days other than on some closer properties. BTW, I said it was tough but didn’t say it wasn’t a blast!! I wouldn’t change a thing although if he had been able to go it would have been easier and definitely cheaper lol. My wife did go the last couple of times and was with me when I killed a decent buck late season. This was the only times I hunted blinds vs. a climber. I pray I never quit and I pray I am not too stubborn to make adjustments when physically needed. I also hope and pray I can measure success or what fun looks like differently as my age and mind dictates. Lastly, I have one grandchild. He’s in my avatar pic. I have accumulated quite a bit of stuff for him in 2.5 yrs and look forward to spending as much time as the good Lord and his parents will allow me to in a tree, box blind, ground blind, or against a tree on the ground. Again, great thread and I have enjoyed all of the responses!! [/QUOTE]
