on a lighter note...

I am a HUNTER....I can scout out a new area, set up on a trail, hang a climbing stand and be sound asleep in it, 30 minutes tops.

It seems to me that I see more deer after taking a short nap, then when I'm awake.

Methinks the hunted is much smarter than the hunter. They know when season opens and closes and disappear during.

We are hunters, not killers.

That we are my friend, that we are.

Second reason why I prefer hunting on the ground vs a tree stand.

Find a well used trail, find a good spot to observe and set up an ambush, stretch out on the ground all nice and comfy, no worries about dropping gear or dangling from a full body harness because I rolled over on my side.

Isn't it amazing how an animal as wary as a white tail just tunes out the new presence of a pop up blind! As for falling asleep--that's what we call "conservation"

exactly. They are well versed in the boundaries of the lands, and break into the neighboring county, where our license is not valid. And when wild boar hunting was banned due to losses from African swine fever, the remaining wild boars stopped being afraid of hunters. I saw a huge boar sitting on the shooting line and watching the moose hunt.

About 15 years ago, I read on an American website that a broken collarbone is a common injury experienced hunters fall from a tree. Unfortunately, sleepiness increases with age. I told this to women I knew in Siberia, and they were like, "Oh! Our garage boss recently broke his arm and shoulder - he fell asleep in "labaz" - hunted a bear and fell asleep."

The collar bone is the most commonly broken bone in humans. But I’ve sure seen a lot of skull fractures that accompany them-

Probably, an orange Kevlar helmet will be a must-have attribute of an ambush hunter in the future.

I broke my collarbone when I was 12 playing tag after dark. Ran into a guide wire on a power pole took me right off my feet. Knocked the wind out of me.

True story. The collar bone was designed (or evolved, whatever) to break, to be a shock-absorber for more critical infrastructure like neck or head. Same way modern cars are designed to crush on impact.
