Last year on Nov. 4 I shot a beautiful 3x4 buck. This year, nothing. I've camped the last three weekends and have only seen three does. Meanwhile, people are taking massive bucks in the same area. So I talk about that, why I bow hunt and give a last word on Prop. 1.

After three hours in the woods with my bow, I record a podcast about Prop 1. I was, at first glance, a clear "Yes." Then I tried to persuade myself to "No," just to make sure I was a "Yes" for sure. But I understood the concerns from the "No" crowd, so now I'm in the middle. The best decisions are made from a place of understanding. Better to be conflicted thanks to research than manipulated by slogans.

After a few days in DC for my cousin's wedding and to gain perspective, I am glad to be back in Ketchikan. I explain why it's good to get perspective, why the idea of a place like Alaska appeals so much to those deprived of real wild and I make a call for those with input on Prop 1.

Bear at 10 yards, I nock an arrow and go through my checklist of what to do, not from experience because I've only taken 1 deer with my bow, but from research. I made the right call. On the drive back in from the hunt, I talk about the importance of practice and getting through all those early unsuccessful trips because that's the only way to get better. I'm a long way from where I want to be, but each trip gives me the chance to improve.

I'm now 0-2 hunting with my buddy Evan, so we will likely not be "hunting buddies" until we have some success. Anyway, after we failed to take a buck in the alpine (him) or down low (me) I wonder at what point the alpine season really ends. I discuss that and how my first camp out using a hammock instead of a tent went.
