Average age of the hunt talk crowd.

I turn 54 on Cinco de Mayo

I'm a week later. HELLO MEDICARE!

This is a totally loaded question. There is actual age…then I read the humor section and I am convinced that most of us (myself included) are trapped in the teenage boy years.

Some days I wondered why this meme always seems so relevant on here.

50 was tough for some reason. Seems like yesterday, however, I’m 57 now.
I’m already dreading 60…..if I make it!

You turn 50...you hit 60

"Too soon old ... too late smart!" my Mom.

It was, as that's when I graduated from Great Falls High School!

I wonder if you are our senior member?

But as long as you wake up it's a win.

You know it's going to be a bad day when you wake up and go pee on your feet.

I think the ages and results have more to do with HuntTalk than hunting. Although, I first joined a hunting forum at 14 or 15 (2005?) and there were a bunch of youths (or creepers pretending to be ) but those places are ghost towns now.

50 isn't so bad except it robs you of being able to say about yourself that you are "young" without sounding foolish to actual young people.

Only much older people will call you young now, which I think is just their wry sense of humor on display.

On the plus side, I got my shingles shot today. Try that - you 49'ers.

 

[Treeshark]

Not to wish time away, but there is a small part of me looking forward to my 69th birthday.

 

[Exhausted]

25 was pretty cool because my auto insurance premium decreased...50 was notable because my bride surprised me with my first Harley...75 last January didn't really hit as hard as a few health hiccups at 68 & 71.

Everyone 70+ and continues to hunt are my idols. Keeping the dream alive!

Been a fun nearly 40 years and excited for 40 more.

Helped a 72 year old pack out bull last Fall. 12 years my senior and he is still at it. It was fun. mtmuley

70 some year old guy we met last year was going back for his last trip on a cow he shot and somebody took it. Felt terrible for that guy, he was beyond upset.

1955, Mr. Sandman was the hit... or Rock around the Clock.

I get up @ 0400 or there about each morning, still. Tell Dotti we're OK and we made it another day.
Planning another solo elk hunt this year...if I get a tag.

25th was a huge cioppino party ... kegs and 20 gal. of cioppino.
50th was most of the family and reserved.

Choice between ribeye or elk backstrap this year. Just us.
Dotti observes every freezer opening like a surprise party.
