Haha, I don't mean to make anyone jealous. I just love being in the outdoors and hunting. It was how I grew up. I don't do much else than hunt/fish, a bit of socialising so I still have a few friends (lol), but I put a lot of effort into making time to hunt, and still work a 40+ hour week and juggle family time. It usually means big days and late nights and I'm always tired but you only live once and I want to hunt as much as I can while I'm young enough to do it. At this time of year I'll work when the weather is crappy, and hunt when it's fine. Income definitely drops a bit but winter time is a very busy work time for me which makes up for it. The missus gets a bit annoyed, but she knows how much it means to me and gets over it pretty quick.
As for the hunting spots, get out there, do some foot work and start looking. Over 90% of my hunting is done on public land. All spots found by me, none "recommended" by someone else etc. All but maybe a couple of the roar photos I've put up in this thread have been taken on public land. I generally don't even take photos on private land hunts, as they're normally just meat hunting trips. The animals are always there, you just need to spend time to find them.
