For me, the best part of hunting is seeing things other people will never see.
1. A covey of bobwhites feeding around your stand.
2. A badger, bobcat, etc. in their natural environment.
3. Had coyotes bark at my truck for 15 minutes.
4. Watched a doe bring her two fawns to water while we were cleaning doves.
5. Watched a dominant buck for three years and never shot him. Looked like a cow compared to the other deer.

Went to a friend's property earlier this year North of Rocksprings and saw a Panther.
Love hunting Bobwhites with dogs and Blue Quail in South Texas just walking around.
Most fun is White Wing when they are swarming like mosquitoes. Best time was 15 birds(limit) in 35 minutes. One guy did it in 20. Always wanted to go on a Mexico or Argentina hunt where the guides are loading and handing you different guns just to keep them cool. Perhaps a fish and fowl on Lake Guerrero but I'm not as enthusiastic about Mexico as I once was.
