    Every season I do a countdown in my head as I'm sure a lot of you do. A countdown to opening day (25 Days) until opening day here in Michigan. It's so bad that friends and family can ask "How long until bow season?" I can answer "113" or "87" this year I started counting down at 191 days out. Is anyone else this bad?

    Not me. Some years I don't even go out until the season has been open for a month. I love to bow hunt. But, I don't obsess over it.

    It's the rut that really gets most of my attention. For two weeks, killing a good buck (relative) is my only goal. I have one antlerless tag this season, so I'll have to be choosy how I use it. That will keep me hitting the woods more often. :tu:

    Couldn't agree more. Our season opens on Friday and I think I'm going to golf if the weather is nice.

    No thanks, I have enough going on in my life besides bow hunting. No sense losing sleep. Heck I haven't even decided if I'll go out Saturday. I may just sleep in and shoot some doves.

    You gotta do it Tim Well's style though, You should see his dove videos. I would dare say he is the most lethal bowhunter out there!

    4 Days! And yes, start thinking about bow season as soon as spring turkey season is finished.

    I let my internal clock take over. Work is starting to get in the way more each year. I'll have to do something about that in the future.
