Well lads...
I appreciate all the views/responses on recent topics and as I get older,with a bad back and aching joints, "memory lane" gets visited more often but... today, I am wondering why you hunt the deer you hunt. Is it for that trophy racked buck or is it for that succulent venison piled up on a dinner plate with mashed potatoes and gravy on a blustery night in winter? For that matter, just how big does that buck have to be to be a trophy in your eyes? Do you pass up smaller deer or does(table fare)for a chance at that old "bruiser?" So what is it guys...meat, rack or both...and do you have to take a deer to enjoy the hunt?
