    What’s a guy to do?

    I’m leaving on a 6 day Archery Mule/WT Deer hunt in the Badlands of ND next week but I can feel a bug coming on, scratchy sore throat right now but I know what’s coming.

    I want to go sit in a tree this weekend, I would be archery hunting not gun hunting. Thing is, I’ve just not been seeing any quality bucks I’m looking for. I’m running out of time to fill my MN tag. Getting ready to shot a doe, dying to have some venison bacon made.

    I”m starting to think I should stay in this weekend and rest up. It takes alot to get this fat arse up and down those hills in ND. I can at least get my cloths all washed up and everything packed.

    Stay home and rest up for next weeks hunt or say screw-it and go sit in a tree??? Can’t decide???

    What would you guys do?

    The scratchy throat thing turns into a real bear for about a week. However, you can’t kill them from the house. Get your fat in the tree.

    You can rest come January!

    This sounds like a good houskeeeping tip……… Are your sinuses clogged? If so, use a Neti Pot, they work amazing(so does the farmers blow ). I have been sick for the past week and if it weren’t for the pot, I would have been staying in. Buy at a drugstore for like 5 bucks. Otherwise, get your out there and fill the freezer and trophy room!!

    Good Luck!!

    I don’t have a clue what a Neti pot is!!

    Sometimes you have to drink those things away, I would start with blackberry brandy and go from there windsor,jack,jim,jose whatever it takes. Get your out in the woods.

    Sore throat can be a sign of the flu… If you start getting fever, chills, headache and/or muscle aches, watch out. In that case, make yourself the priority, not hunting.

    If its just a sore throat, the best cure is venson bacon.

    Load up on the Vitamin C chewables/lozenges and go hunting this weekend. But when you’re done each day, get your in bed!!

    x2. That is exactly what I have been trying to do. We missed out on my Bros 40th B-Day party last night, but wanted to at least stay the same not get worse

    Go load up on Airborne. It was designed by a teacher, so you know its good.

    (Note the heavy, heavy dose of sarcasm that I’m trying to add. Absolutely nothing against teachers, but as a pharmacist, that sales pitch (for a product that in my opinion is worthless) just kills me).

    I would do the vitamin c and get in the tree.

    The wife swears by that zicam, but I have never used it. It does seem to work for her.

    Well boys, I slept in this morning, took a little nap around noon and felt great. In my tree by 2 and got shut out. Such a beautiful night and not 1 deer. Oh well, at least I had a great night to sit.
