I dont't normally hunt aloone because I enjoy hunting with my dad. I dont have a problem hunting alone, and will when my da cant make it. It gives me time to relax and catch up on sleep after the evening hunt.

I would rather hunt alone than to not hunt, so sometimes I will be alone, but I am a little more careful when I am alone and I always check in quite often and let people know where I will be.

Almost always now that my Dad has hung em up. My sons live pretty far away and don't get home very often. I do enjoy the solitude.

In the past it was rare that I did hunt alone, now never.

Started hunting alone as soon as was legal and never looked back. It's been very rare to not hunt alone since, nothing more relaxing than sitting in a tree taking it all in.

I prefer to be with others at camp, but I like to be on stand alone.

Have 5 guys on our lease and I usually hunt alone during the week. Others are still doing the day thing and I'm retired. No ladder stands for me. Ground blinds are my favorite place to sit and wait for game to come in/by.

I do it all the time. Yes there is more of a danger element being alone but you just have to take extra precautions to prevent those careless mistakes that can get you in trouble.
There are times when I really like hunting alone and times when I wish other hunters were there.

My whole family done give up on me And it makes me feel oh so bad The only one who will hang out with me Is my dear Old Grand-Dad And we hunt alone, yeah With nobody else
Ah crap, I think there's already a thread about drinking and uhhhyeahhhh.
Seriously, I mostly hunt alone. I enjoy it though there are occasions when I wish I had comrades with me.

Elk in Colorado (and some fishing) 90% alone, here after WT 99% alone. I "aint" skeered But you always have to be paying attention, especially in the Mountains.

I don't always hunt alone, but when I do, I prefer Shiner Bock. Oh, sorry...wrong thread.

i have hunted alone many times. it makes camp boring in the evening, but other than that, no difference yep. that's my biggest issue. You can always talk to yourself. I hunt alone because no one wants to go with me.

I go to the lease when ever I get a chance, whether someone else is there or not. However, I do prefer for others to be in camp just to have someone to talk to every once in a while or enjoy a campfire with.
I always sit on stand alone. My wife says she might go with me later in the year, so she'll probably sit with me for the evening hunts. I seriously doubt she's going to get up for the morning hunts at 5am, though.

I generally hunt alone now that my son has gotten older and our schedules never allow us to hunt like we did when he was younger. Hopefully my daughter will help take up the slack time.

Makes it more interesting when you have to figure out how to get a big one loaded I hunt alone a lot so I HAD to figure out how to load one by my self. Not a big deer in this thread but the process will work on any deer or hog. My game loading method.

Yes. I don't view hunting as a team sport.
