    Hunting season preparations, what did you do today?

    Working on my physical fitness, reading Bowhunting Modern Elk and Bowhunting Pressured Whitetail (read a little from both each day), and researching some state forest lands in VA. I'm currently deployed so limited in what I can do for now.
