I'm all in. After a disappointing '22 where none of my hunting plans actually came to fruition, I'm champing at the bit for '23.
1. As I posted in last year's thread a few days ago, just joined a lease in East Texas with my brother and some of his buddies. Lotta work to do to whip that place in to shape, but I'm actually looking forward to having an outdoors project on my hands. I've gotten way too city-fied over the past decade.
Also, first time I've ever actually been on a lease as a paying member rather than having to wait to get invited. Gonna spend a couple Saturdays out there this offseason filling feeders and clearing out routes to the handful of serviceable stands, drinking beer, and plinking targets.
2. Have a weekend of 4 dove hunts booked for South Zone opener after missing last season entirely.
3. Standing invite to head to a buddy's hunting club down on the coast for a duck hunt this Fall. Just gotta figure out a weekend that works for both of us.
