re: Opening Weekend activity at your Lease

I'm the only one that hunts one of my leases (~1,000 ac) during bow season. My old man will go up with me, but he doesn't hunt. He just scouts. He won't hunt until it's below 60 degrees. I usually bring one or two of the kids and let them build fires, eat honeybuns, and shoot BB guns with their grandfather while I hunt. Everyone wins. There's an occasion when one other member bowhunts, but he's retired and usually just goes up during the week for a day or so. Opening day of rifle season we'll usually have a full house (6 hunters).
