Anyone hunt by themselves??

[longknife]

99.9% of the time I hunt alone except for this year I'v had my son with me most of the time and wow I've learned the meaning of  patience!!!

I hear that as well!! My daughter cant stop fu@$&^% around!! I have to tell her everytime we go for a walk, the elk/deer dont show up on the ground, you have to look in the woods! Then you get the thumping on the ground because they are not paying attention to where they are walking... But it has to be fun, or they wont think its fun.

By myself for deer 95% of the time.  All the elk except 2 where with other people.

Everytime for deer, elk is different

I do it alot and like it.  I like not having any limitations and just being able to do what I want.  I do hunt with people as well but generally that means me taking off before light and not showing up until dark and telling them to radioe if they need something.

I always hunt alone. Hate hunting wth partners but don't mind em at camp. Just easyer for me plus if u fock up canr blame it on anyone but urself

Usually
lots of folks like to talk hunting not everyone actually goes hunting, or get out of their truck

I said always but that will change next season.  My Daughter will be hunting with me and, unfortunately, we will be rifle hunting.    She want's to bow hunt but I need her to learn a few more things in the woods so she is not distracted when she hunts with a bow.

I've been hunting alone since my Dad died when I was 15.  Now 54.  Hard to hunt with some people, just haven't found the right partner.  They seem to be few and far between.  I will be hunting the Nile next week.  I will have the 5th wheel at Sqaw Rock Resort again.  A guy from my area may join up with me after Thanksgiving Day, but didn't make any committment.  So, I hope I run into some elk there.  Good luck to anyone else heading down there.

i prefer to hunt alone, i did the math figure your 8 times more likely to see stuff.

Nobody can stand being around me that long.And if the can,I don't trust them with a weapon.

Otherwise I would use most of the reasons others have stated.
I can go where I want when I want,instead of staying in a dead zone,or going somewhere that is real popular at work.

It will be interesting to haul a bull out by myself.If I kill one

Probably every other trip. I like it that way quite often but then again I really enjoy my ol huntin partner's company when we can make it work out.
