For me it was growing up on the farm back in the 90's and living to duck/goose/dove hunt. I remember during duck season, our blind was about a 5 minute 4-wheeler ride from our house so we would go every morning before school, shoot for about an hour and then make it before class started. Then after school, my brothers and I would either creep geese in one of our fields, or try and make an evening dove roost hunt.

The weekends were even better, because we could stay in the blind all morning and just have fun. Hell, I remember shooting the hell out of snipe and dove right from our blind. Even though we still hunt the same fields, it just wasn't the same as how it used to be. Duck numbers were WAY higher back then, and dove hunting was better because it was before round-up ready soybeans.

Anyways, can't ready for teal season!

When I was in junior high and had zero responsibilities besides catching and killing. Limits and species had no place in my vocabulary.

Also, hanging out with my grandpa when he was in better shape while he taught me about farming cotton soybeans corn and wheat.

We must be about the same age then. The nineties were the good ole days for me. Gas was cheap and we spent every free day in the woods and on the water.

The 90s. Hunting and fishing was all I was concerned with. Of course the beer came into the picture around the mid 90s so that made everything even better.

I don't yearn for my childhood years. It's a toss-up. Either:

1) When stationed at the naval station on Algiers Point in early 80's, or Kodiak in the late 80's

or

2) Now.

Mid to late 90s in HS. Trying to beat every other TD&H to the public timber hunt.

Then bring kicked out of college because I hunted too much. I eventually got my shite together

When there were NO cell phones and a weekend at the camp meant no bothering.

For me the good old days were hunting and fishing with my dad and paw paw . Waking up every day of the summer and riding a 4 wheeler to go rip lips in the local ponds . Or getting out of school for thanksgiving and Christmas and spending both at the camp
