JS I think we all have those times where we feel we are projecting. It's hard not too especially when two sitches are similar.
What are you hunting?
My father, poor soul, was blessed with 3 daughters. I was the only hunter. In PA (where I'm from) I did small game season and deer season. I shot my first doe when I was 14. It was also my last one.
Luckily my dad has 1 grandson who likes hunting.. so finally he has his father/son moments.
I really enjoy your new moto about not letting the best get in the way of better. I agree it's easier to want the best and not be happy with the progress.
Peace and Hugs!!
