Quote: “A hunter that waits for perfect conditions will go home empty-handed.” – Unknown

While we often try our best to time conditions, the reality is that we often don’t get to hunt at the most opportune times. You may have to travel for work, have limited PTO, a newborn at home, family activities, or any other thing or combination of those things, it can make hunting at the right time difficult. Heck, you may plan a rutcation for early November and when the time comes that you’ve planned to have off, Mother Nature will cruelly deal you 70 degree temps. And then of course there’s gusting winds, frozen ground, and wary deer that make success feel distant. So what can we do as hunters? We can adapt, not retreat. We can make the best of the situation. We can hunt. 

Tip: You can’t kill ‘em from the couch. 

Takeaway:  Those who adapt find success where others find excuses. As the king of excuses, I need to take these words to heart. Conditions will never be perfect. Hunt anyway.
