Well its a little over 5 weeks until the 2011 gun season is here. I have my ladder stand up on the state land, its
about a 1/4 mile from the area I used to use. Actually the new area is just as good as the old if not better, at least I hope so, I have only failed 1 year of not harvesting a deer since 2000 when we bought the farm here in Crawford County, Missouri, that year was 2010, seems just about everyone around here had about the same luck in 2010. It's hard to realize I started hunting in 1976 with my cousin Byler in Oklahoma, and I have not missed a opening day since my first hunt 45 years ago, now I am telling my age. I am getting quite a few pictures of deer with my game camera, again more than 2010. Opening day will be here before we know it. Still gotta take the rifles up to my 100 yard shooting range here on the farm, just to be sure they are still sighted in. There will be more to come as the season progresses. Before getting around to checking the rifles, I took the tractor out back and brushogged the range, looks like a golf course now, before I could not even see the backstop or the range marker stakes, but I am good to go now.
