Simple goal. 2.5 year old or older. Get a few more of those under my belt and I might raise it.
I would love to shoot a target buck that has a name...that’s more of a wish than a goal.
I have four right now.

3.)GO IN BLIND AND KILL A DEER.(Ive scouted a good bit but most of my hunts will be going in with cyber scouting only.)
4.) KILL MY FIRST HOG.(Either with bow/gun, doesn't matter to me.)
5.) TAG OUT ON SQUIRRELS FOR A DAY.(We get 8/day)
6.) KILL MY FIRST TURKEY.(Only went once with my dad years ago.)

To see a deer while hunting. I keep my expectations low.
 
1. As with last year, just relax and enjoy every minute outdoors I can. Don't let the pressure for success drive you crazy. Best advice I've been given in many years was from last year. I'll say again . . . Thanks @DaveT1963 .
2. Try to get close to and harvest a mature buck from his bedding area.
3. Explore and expand my hunting into areas I haven't hunted before.

Not hunt same location more than 2 or 3 times , & Fill the freezer!
I am in a meat crisis with only one deer allowed. I have passed on smaller deer or does with fawns in the past few years and sometimes it hurts.. The first big swamp donkey or decent sized buck that presents themselves at a good range is getting an heavy 740grain e.f.o.c maasai tipped arrow all the way through it..
 
1) Fill the freezer
2) Get my first bow kill (hopefully this corresponds with my first kill from a saddle)
3) At least see a buck that I would be allowed by the landowners to take (pretty strict restrictions on most of the properties I hunt)
