Hunting alone?

[Steverino]

Usually both, during archery season I hunt alone. As Dan sagely pointed out above, my family have contact numbers for both the property owners and surrounding neighbors at the farm that I bowhunt. My cell phone does not receive signals in the area that I hunt but my wife knows that if I do not return home at the appointed time, to call the neighbors. It's a good two hours from my house and I typically get cell phone coverage after only fifteen minutes on the main hwy out. (Usually calling my wife to inform her as to how I did and what I saw) I do enjoy the solitude by myself.

For gun season, it's all about the comraderie at deer camp with friends and family. If I shoot a deer, it's a bonus. It's just nice to be afield with friends and family during the deer firarm season. I personally enjoy pheasant hunting with friends too (it also helps that they're the ones with the bird dogs! )
