"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

If so.. What ya get? And by get, I don't mean puzzy. I mean deer, bears, moose, elk, grouse, etc

Heading out for some man time in the bush this weekend with my daughter to bag us a few deer in the area I love hunting every year. Since I'm in much better shape, chasing the mulies this year should be a crap ton easier. Those buggers love the steep hills and are a bich to get out and back to camp.

Tell me your hunting stories!

I got a 4x3 mule deer last season after tracking it for 4 days on foot. Weighed almost 300lbs and got close to 200lbs of meat off it. Yum

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

I live on the east coast so we don't have any mule deer. However, I do enjoy whitetail hunting. I have only been hunting once so far this year and just saw a small 2x2. I'm more of a meat hunter than a trophy hunter.

I'm looking forward to moving out west and hunting for mule deer one day. I took a trip out to Wyoming this summer and loved the scenery. I like the whole aspect of stalking a big deer and then taking a long shot with a precision rifle. It is a lot different from how we hunt here where most shots are sub 200 yards.

@Espi Yeah man it was a huge deer. Bigger than average by a lot. I am a meat hunter too. I take the first legal game animal I see regardless of size. I got a tag for a bear, white tail and a spike fork moose too just incase I see them

@DJ Bax. I have a hard time hunting white tails. They are so elusive. They don't have the same patterns as mule deer. I usually find them hunting for mulies and they catch me offguard ... And wave bye with their tails before I can get my gun on them. Man they are fast and donr bounce away like mulies either. They run.

I leave thursday... Fricken stoked. So is my daughter.

Fvck ya! I love hearing about hunting success!

I leave in 5hrs! Drive for 6hrs and hope to bag a deer at first light with no sleep.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

Good luck! Everytime I hunt bymyself without any sleep, I end up falling asleep in the stand.

I have no patience for stands. I need to move around.

I mostly hunt mulies and they love steep terrain so I go and get em on their turf.

Came back with no bacon this hunt. Seen a 4pt (or 8pt in usa measurements) and only had a 3 second chance to shoot it but opted not to cuz I would have put it right up its azz. Not to mention it was sooo far away from any road and too steep and bushy to get a quad to it. Didn't want to wound it so I let it go. Seen a moose while bush wackin with my daughter. It was a cow moose and not a spkier (can only shoot big bulls with a moose bull draw that's hard to win) and seen 2 white tail does that moved far too fast for a shot and about 10mule deer does that I was praying for horns to grow on them. No luck. Gunna try for a bear next week in a different spot.

Lost like 10lbs on the trip. Had a calorie counter on me one of the days hiking and burned over 6k in calories.
