My morning ritual is pretty much the same regardless of where I am hunting.

Up early, a cup of coffee while I’m getting ready, bathroom, a cup of coffee for the road.

I like to be in the woods 1 hour before “sunrise” time. Sometimes that means getting up at 2:30 and a 2 hour drive, others it means cranking the buggy and driving across the road.

I am trying a cane yelper this year for the first time. That’s really the only new thing.
