Manage your own expectations, vice letting others manage them for you.
Wonder if all the guys with one sticks feel like they got just the tip?Don’t call your Tuesday Tip… “Just the Tip” Ewwww .
That’s funny if you are in your 20’s. Creepy as hell if you are Dad aged.

A little biased are we lol.Light arrows are not as good as heavy arrows unless you like tracking a wounded deer with dogs.

yep… funny story.. I hunt NW Florida public land… one of my strategies is to set up cameras along swamp edges and young pines… each camera progressively deeper… once bow season starts I will go to pull first camera and hunt that area and next hunt go deeper to next camera pull it and hunt there… and so forth…therefore no a lot of disturbance… anyway one hot morning got to tree and had hot south wind… took a lot to set through mid morning… finally broke down and pulled out my phone and started looking at pictures from that camera… hadn’t gone through 10 pictures and I’m looking at pictures of deer coming from behind my treestand… sure enough heard something behind me stood up with phone in my hands in time to see 3 nice bucks come out right where the camera said they would… obviously couldn’t shoot them with my iPhone…Stop relying so heavily on technology and for the love of god turn your phone completely off when on stand. Countless bucks have walked right by laughing at the guy sitting in his tree staring at his phone who never had a clue that buck was there.
Learn to turn all that garbage off and slow your mind down to the point you’re attuned to the natural world, you’ll see more deer.
Non-negotiable?
1. Tell somebody where you're going. My wife has a pretty good knowledge of where I hunt because I take her fishing, flower picking, etc in those areas. If I tell her I'm going to the beaver pond, she knows where that is. If I'm hunting where she isn't familiar, I text gps coordinates to her phone.
2. Really don't have another non-negotiable rule.

I've had TP disintegrate in a pack before. Now I use moist wipes or Kleenex as both are more durable. The moist wipes aren't usually biodegradable tho.3. Toilet Paper.

Learn how to trap...you see so and learn so much more when you're trying to put a piece of steel in the ground that has 8-20 square inches of kill area. Tom Miranda was a big trapper before he was the known as a big time bow hunter. Last couple of years at out National Trappers Association convention he's given demos on how trapping has made him a better hunter.
Guilty…..multiple times. The phone has cost me a couple giants that slipped up on me.
