Choose your hunting partners wisely.
27 years ago I relocated. Until then I hunted with my father and a few close friends. I checked out a couple of different clubs that some friends and coworkers were in. They were more like frat parties than hunting clubs. After one really bad day I finally gave up. On a deer drive a club member shot the ground about 5 feet in front of me from about 50 yards away. He was unloading on a buck running full tilt between us. Later that day they abandoned a new guy that got separated from the group. He spent the night in the Adirondacks by himself. I have mostly hunted alone since then.
