Do some bowshoot competitions, go squirrel hunting, whatever floats your boat.

I love the off season as much as I love the season. Actually as my looong bow season closed I couldn't wait for sheding and scouting time to come

You never know when you will find that tree or shed that will lead you to bullwinkle next year.

Get in the woods and enjoy

Another idea is if you can purchase a 3-D whitetail target, and practice shooting at various yardages, and when next year rolls around, you will be ready to put that arrow in the sweet spot.

I'm thinking of getting the bionic buck and that should be better than shooting the block but i feel like i'm having hunting withdrawl--they don't make a patch for that do they?

Scout and you will be suprised at what you find out there during off season. Make a game of it for yourself, be creative, bring your bow with you for that chance at elusive critters you can legally hunt. Scout some more. Have fun being in the playground and before you know it next season will arrive and you shall be prepared.

jsasker,

They do not make a stop hunting patch, Thank god! The anti's and peta people would be going crazy sticking them on everyone. You could try a teaspoon of tinks #69 and that should cure you for a while. [X(]

Just getting out and staying active usually works for me. If you have a gps you could join the bow hunters geocacheing club. You too can be a gps'n fool.
