This will be 43 years for me...Man..time sure flies.

I should mention, I actually started hunting when I was 10, shooting squirrels with my dad's .22. Family time in the woods. Actually started big game hunting at 16....

I'm 60 but definitely not old. I still climb trees & do fun outdoor stuff all the time. Agree on the fun aspect 100%. Started bowhunting when I was 11. Stay healthy stay happy. Now if I could just remember where I left my bow?

Being the smart arse that I am.... I'm amazed all you ol' timers know how to use a computer!

In all seriousness, thank you all for keeping the "tradition" alive, allowing me to enjoy my first year of this sport.

To all those who came before, and those still slingin arrows;

Killed my first deer at six with a rifle and first archery deer when I was 11, now I'll be 62 in November and still enjoy the few times a year I get to hunt..

Just turned 63 and killed my first trad deer when I was 15.  Have to say I did go to the dark side, compounds, for a period. I killed my first archery animal with a traditional bow and I will kill my last the same way.  I seem to enjoy it more each year and now am traditional only.

I have been bending sticks since i was three. My 45th year hunting deer. Thanks to an over aggressive bone cracker, I did not do a Canadian wilderness canoe trip with my wife this year, but I am doing a little better and will be able hunt deer with my 52 pounders.

Started shooting a recurve in 1967, I am 62 now. It has been fun.

This will be my 44th year pushing deer around.  I just turned 65 two weeks ago, and am just as excited about opening day as I was in 1968!  Luckily, my son Jay (JJB on here) is close enough to help pull them out.
