Hi Hunt Talkers,
I discovered HT back in the fall when I was looking for pronghorn and field dressing advice prior to a trip to WY with my son. We both filled tags, his first big game critter and my first since 2000. Yes, I had quite a dry spell in my big game hunting mostly due to youth sports and competitive shooting.
Now in my early 50's I truly understand what Big Fin means by "you will run out of health before you run out of money". Having youth sports in the rear view mirror (mostly) and deciding I can put off competitive shooting 'til I'm older and more feeble (I know a guy that's 82 that still shoots USPSA matches on occasion) I've decided to devote my recreation time to hunting again.
I'm presently training 4-5 times a week, studying regs from ID, MT and WY and enhancing my gear package in anticipation for Spring Bear in April and of course deer, elk and antelope starting in Sept. My user name Focus is a personal reminder to me to focus on my hunting goals and what's important in life in general.
I've been ghosting HT for quite some time now and decided to participate in some discussions. I feel all of us have something to give to the hunting community and I'm constantly amazed at the depth of knowledge and opinions on this site.
Best of luck,
Focus
