Definitely a great post and the reason that many of us relate so well to one another regardless of our ages or other differences. We all share deer hunting as a passion and we all are anxious to help one another. There are some truly great whitetail hunters here who are very gracious.

Great post BHBH!! I have killed many deer and some good bucks on public. However, when that 140 inch buck strolled into range on opening day this season as I was hunting in my LW beast style, well that's just a feeling I can't describe!! When I saw my arrow pass thru him, my eyes filled with tears and the adrenalin was overwhelming!! I love whitetails and I love this site!!

I really enjoy this off season bump stuff. There is a lot of useful stuff buried in time on this site.

Awesome post, this one of the biggest things that I think hold people back in their lives across the board. Thinking we know more than we do Keeps us from learning. Recognizing that is a big step. Very good post

The Beast forum is instantly humbling. If it isn't, one needs to get into the hunter bios and best tactics threads.

Dewey wrote:Being a student is the biggest step you can take to becoming a better hunter. When you think you have it all figured out whitetail have a way with bringing you back down to earth again. I never want to stop learning and make sure I soak everything in I read here wether I agree with it or not. Keeping an open mind and trying new things can really help you grow as a hunter. I have learned more from everyone here at at the Beast and previously at BBO than I learned in the previous 20 years combined!

[glow=red]I think we all have unique experiences that we can share that everyone can learn from.[/glow] The wealth of knowledge here cannot be found anywhere else and I cannot stress how lucky we all are to have access to all of this for free!

Good post BHBH! 8-)

x2 ... The majority of us are students most of the time. I have learned to sit back and learn from others on a thread, and only contribute when I have pertinent facts/observations, rather than throwing out my opinion.

Great topic.
