Everyone’s 2024 season plans

[LostArra]

I have spent every day in September in north Idaho's mountains for the last several years.....but this year my 14 yo son drew a rifle elk tag near Hanford.....so I think I may be the second fiddle this time

When your kids are hunting second fiddle is the best place to be.

I was in a stand 70 yards from my daughter's stand watching a buck feed towards her.
I can't see her but I'm wondering if she sees the buck, if she's even awake or messing with her phone. I'm getting some buck fever watching through binoculars when I see a lighted nock fly. The buck did a spinning bronco kick and bolts. I'm pretty sure I hear a crash.
I text her not to get down but use binos to look for the arrow.
She replies "I can't get down. I'm shaking all over" Haha!
She finds the arrow and we find her buck within 50 yards. It was her first archery deer.
It's my most memorable deer hunt.

Me and the boys along with a friend of oldest son are doing a drop camp in MT mid-September. After that its PA and NY deer/bear and small game.

No western hunt this year unfortunately. And I missed last season working overseas. So number one goal this year is just to get a deer. Ultimately, killing one with my recurve for the first time would be my ideal goal. But if I haven’t got one by late November, I may have to rifle hunt just a bit to actually fill the freezer.

 

[Bleepr]

Weekend warrior-ing it in the cascades, mostly. No time to scout, so just going to see if I can get lucky with a blacktail or elk

 

[long hunter]

Off year for me on the big hunts, will stick close to home and chase white tails. We try to go west every other year 2025 will be antelope and hopefully mule deer.

Recovering from a torn rotator cuff and getting enough arrow-launching time to go after fall turkey.

[Timberline001]

Deer in Utah in August, September elk OTC in Utah along with a week of guiding elk. Then helping a buddy fill his antelope tag Idaho at the end of the month. Idaho deer and elk at the end of October, and then Colorado third season to help my sister fill a deer tag. The rest of November will be filled chasing deer and elk OTC here in Utah. Then hopefully depredation cow tags in January.

[Stickmark]

Archery in Arizona, Aug-Sept. Velvet Season; plan to shoot first legal (antlered) coues; plan to check for intervening vegetation before I release.
Not drawn for rifle.

 

[HunterHawk]

May hunt bear/elk OTC in CO in September...my main focus will be CO/KS deer and I also have MI deer tags but nothing really getting me excited on camera in Michigan...
Should get my new bow in july/August...sooner the better. I ordered in January but it is custom so definitely not trying to rush it! Just can't wait to start shooting it! 55# Black/white ebony (dark) widow

The repair of my house has me a ll screwed up for hunting.

I have an elk tag- and a bear repellant-tag in Idaho. New unit for me and I ran over there for a few days and covered some ground both on his fat tire bikes on motorcycle trails with my buddy [NEVER AGAIN, dang I hate those things] and with a pack. Totally kicked my butt...I need to step up the workouts.

Found some promising travel corridors but it's a 5 and 6 mile poke in there at high elevation.....it's going to be tough.

 

[CarterHunt]

Archery mule deer in Colorado and rifle mule deer over Thanksgiving in Montana
Then chasing whitetails locally between those western hunts.. also I finally got a place to duck hunt so I may give that a shot this year as well.

 

[CodeMonkey]

In terms of traditional archery: practice and shoulder recovery. God willing, 2025 is going to be my first traditional archery hunt.

I do have a few muzzleloader/rifle tags here in CO for 2024, but once I started shooting recurve, nothing really compares to the satisfaction of a well placed arrow.

 

[3Esski]

Oregon Elk and then just putzing around here for moose and bear.
