Great topic ttt, I can relate. I really feel rewarded when I do everthing from start to finsh alone, but at the same time I often wish there was someone to share the experiance with. I really like hunting alone, but camping alone is not my favorite. Packing meat alone has it's challanges too, thankfully I haven't had too many experiances of solo meat packing. I have friends and family that will usually come help once the animal is on the ground. They seem to enjoy packing meat more than hunting, I never really understood that??
As I grew older and my expectations and overall enjoyment for being in the woods increased, nearly all of the people I used to hunt with didn't follow suite. When ever I do hunt with others I usually end up having to tell everyone in the group what to do, where to go ect..that gets a little overbearing sometimes.
I like to take my girls hunting, and when I do, I don't want to have a tag, it's all about them. When I have a tag I prefer to be alone more often than not.
haha
