How many consecutive opening days for you ??
« on: October 10, 2013, 06:21:50 AM »
With opening day just 2 more days away, how many straight opening days will this make. My wife was asking  me this the other day. Pretty easy I told her, got my first hunting license at 10 years old, I am 53 now.

So, this will make 43 straight openers on Saturday morning.   :tup:

Due to my Military service, this will be #10.  Other than that I've been at every hunting camp since I was 4 months old... Oct. 1979.

10 years of archery and rifle.  5 with archery muzzle and rifle. Not sure how you want to score that!

Missed the opener the year I got married....two years later she was by my side and shot her first buck, a spike up near Curlew! 20 years later we will be up near Sherman Pass again, looking for something a little bigger!! :IBCOOL:
