A or B or C

[RB]

B for sure for the next few years then probably C, A is not in the cards after 50 for a lot of guys in my opinion. Had a very smart doctor tell the crowd at a lecture, "guys the day you turn 50 sell your ladders!" He would see more guys over 50 in the ER with falls from a ladder, well because we still think we are 30

For me it depends on the hunt.
Blacktail in Washington or Alaska is A for sure It is (my) hunt. I prepare physically all year for it. Killing a mature blacktail or even getting a opportunity at one is a amazing experience.
My Idaho whitetail is a B love the camp and time with family and helping the younger kids get experience in all things outdoors.

Good choices - Option A - “ likelihood of a monarch”
Makes it so much more considering than the typical “possibility of a monarch”

Are you going hunting?

B

All day, every day.

Why? 

You got me at "beautiful."  That's all that I need.

[elkrack]

Which ever puts meat on the table

[boneaddict]

Are you going hunting?

THat was the plan.   I'm nursing a groin injury so the idea of crawling over logs backpacking in has me balking.

I used to love A   With my health issues this year I’ll be lucky to get c

[The scout]

I would say if A is any kind of option that’s what I would do, though it may be brutal there will come a day when it’s definitely not an option.

[Jpmiller]

I like to think a or b but honestly I enjoy the experience and the people I'm with more than antlers. I like eating wild game and enjoying my time with friends. C is the plan but it has morphed into B a handful of times and I wasn't upset.

[mcrawfordaf]

B or C, just here for the meat.

[gaddy]

Went from A to B over the years. Now with my hips and knees and age I am a C.

Ah man I'm sorry to hear that. I pulled a groin so bad once hard just to bend to sit down etc. If you can nurse that back to health I say you go big. Based on forum observation, it appears to have been many years since you got out with the long bow. But any hunt is a good hunt and any deer is good deer. Best of luck if you get out!

[MeepDog]

I was gonna say B but when I take people with me they call me crazy and usually never come back. Option A it is!

[trophyhunt]

Until I can’t, A.  Don’t care at all for deer meat, so not killing anything but huge is ok w me. The challenge is where it’s at for me, doing a real tough archery elk hunt in 2 weeks, I’ll see where I stand at 53.
