How many ways can you blow it!

Postby Lefty » 07 02, 2022 •  [Post 1]

I just wonder if there are any ways I havent :oops:
Ill just start with a couple simple mistakes.
My 2nd year I had 8 bulls under 35 yards over evening. . The closet 320 plus bull were under 14 yards. I was hunting out of a box blind,,without a shooting window on the backside.

Not reranging ,,,,,,,,,,,

Hunting solo and not moving from the location I bugled from. That cost me a huge bull. It was over 1/4 mile away when I called, so I figured it just might come and search for me. It knew exactly where I was and would not look anywhere else so I could draw my bow.

You have not hunted much if you haven't screw up a couple hundred times. MY problem is I can't sit sit. I fidget all the time
