All seasoned hunters know about it…The feeling of anticipation that turns your brain into mush the week before a big hunting trip.  Your attention span is diminished to short bursts of dealing with short tasks in between dreaming about the adventure you are about to embark on.  You ramble about your preparation to workmates endlessly about the minutia of your plans.

Then there is the calls and emails from other hunters who are in the same boat, or just returning from a successful trip.  I will be featuring some of these photos over the next few days that have arrived in my inbox, so you too can experience the anticipation with me…

• My buddy Ed just returned from Kodiak Island and is headed out soon to Western Oregon after Elk. 
• A couple of Southern California buddies returned from Africa with a laundry list of trophies. 
• My Bay Area friend Rich is headed to Northern California after blacktails , then on to Wyoming for archery elk. 
• Zeke, our resident Sage Creek triathlete sent me a text message that he is in Central Georgia hunting feral hogs.  He has plans for Bear and Deer in Bzone later this season as well.
• My Alaska archery connection Doug is headed out with his son to Kodiak Island with a Mountain goat tag and Sitka blacktail tags.
