its going to be a sleepless night
« on: October 11, 2013, 07:31:07 AM »
Why is it I have a hard time sleeping night before any opener :dunno:.  Still not 100% sure where I'm hunting yet but I'll be out there somewhere.  Maybe I should just plan on sleeping in the blind tonight (done it before) I was young and dumb then now I'm just dumb I guess.  Good luck tomorrow everyone.

I am lucky I have never had the problem of not sleeping the night before.  Maybe its all the fresh air that puts me sound asleep.

Slept in a blind?  I can see sleeping in a treestand maybe but in a duckblind is hardcore  :tup:

You need to see some of the blinds down in the Southeast USA.  They have everything but a recliner and sat tv to watch the Saints play.  Maybe some do.

We have slept out at different spots on more then a few occasions. I usually can get at least a few hours sleep on the ground but when that dew hits about 3 am it gets cold.

I spent the night in the woods last MZ elk season.  I had a warm coat and bibs in my pack but I still froze...literally.  I had frost on my boots when I got up.  Never again.  You guys are above my league. :tup:

I have slept in the boat, the blind, in a layout, in the truck in line. You name it I will sleep there for a good hunt.
