Booked a mid January SW Arizona OTC desert mule deer hunt. Started stepping up the whole eating less and doing more thing and practicing different yardage shots in the yard. Not stepping off anything, just looking at it and shooting. Taking the dog for more walks too. It's been a year and a half since all my spinal surgery and feeling great!

Schulz Outfitters. Very good friend has hunted with Kurt before and highly recommends them. And I very much trust my friend, he's pickier than I am! My biggest concern is the drive from Illinois in mid January. Also PMed you Greg.

Excellente amigo.
The weather should be much nicer there in Jan than in Illinois.

Your biggest concern should be living in IL. I'm sorry to read of your unfortunate state of residence. I resided near Rockford for may years and then I left IL. Best decision I ever made!
Good luck with your hunt!
Thanks, Dinny

I agree about this state. Only still here because I'm caring for elderly parents.
