I try every year to hold it together and not start obsessing to early. It starts by checking this site every day. Then I down load last years GPS tracks to google earth and start reviewing spots that I've hunted and look for more targets to home in on. Then it's to my log book to review last year ,day by day. It amazes me how it's always the same every year within a few days even down to buying my licenses. Been at this since 1986 and it still has control of me.
