Many years ago, I hunted with family or a friend, but then I began doing more and more hunting alone. Once I moved to the West, I found myself hunting almost always alone.

Mostly with my brother-in-law here at home, but alone with an outfitter out west. And him and his crew are like family to me.

Depends on the day we are hunting deer. Usually early season I hunt alone, at a friends home, etc. We may hunt together at different locations. And near the weekend we start hunting WT like rabbits. Because they refuse to move during the day. So we drive them. This is where I am thankful for the young fellas (nephews & friends). We usually have about 8 to 10 guys. We include local neighboring farms, when we are driving deer. This usually happens a few times during the 2 weeks of rifle hunting.

I shoot rodents with wifey - she does the interaction stuff with landowners.

Most of my hunting through the years,
I hunted alone. Early years was with my granddad and sometimes with my dad.
Then with my daughter when she had time. Back in the day, I hunted alone because most didn't want to hunt the places and the way I hunted. Now older I would never do what I did. And I pass on shooting game now, I just like being out there.

I mostly hunt by myself.
I've looked at taking out a kid here & there for a mentored hunt.

But the parents keep yelling and calling the cops.

I hunt with my son primarily. Occasionally with my brother.

I have multiple friends that I hunt with in Wyoming and New Mexico. We live in Georgia, Ohio, and other places but stay in touch with a group chat. Did not try out West last two years due to shortage of tags.

I am getting old and cannot hang with the "death march" hunts were doing in an out of public land - the other guys are a lot younger than me. We had a great time and usually all of us tagged out. A group would drive from Ohio and my group would drive from Georgia and we would rally at a hotel or rental cabins in WY. Drive straight through alternating drivers every tank of gas. Hunt for five days then drive straight through home. Multiple mule deer and antelope harvested per trip. Great times. Great memories.

I very much prefer to hunt alone. But i do enjoy my new-ish tradition in which during whitetail season I go spend a weekend or two at my dad’s place out in the country. He doesn’t hunt anymore, just doesn’t want to honestly, so it’s Hunting alone by day, drinking coffee and catching up on life with my dad by night.

Once my own kids are a bit older I certainly hope at least some of them want to come with me.

Typically alone, but I do think it’s fun with my brothers or other friends.

When large animals (bull elk) are on the menu, a packout with one of my brothers is always welcomed.

Only in the early years I went alone on muzzleloader hunts. No one was interested in it.
Now it's friends and family and bringing up the grandkids, me and hunting buddies have.
Elk camp usually has 20 guys and 3 tags. That's extremely nice from calling them to having them help field dress, skin, quarter and pack out.
I've done 3 elk hunts by myself but I made sure I wasn't far from a forest trail to get them out myself.

Now that I am older I hunt with my Grandsons. All 4 of them are very good hunters and they take pretty good care of Grand Pa!!! I'm really blessed to have these young men.
