Thanks guys
Taking the wife and kids out this weekend, the rut is in full swing so hoping one of them will bag one. Our fall turkey season is on as well, got the little pick camo 20ga all ready for the girls to try and take down a good thanksgiving turkey.

I'm not anti hunting by any means. I just don't think I could shoot them.
I bought 20 lbs of market rabbits at the fair this year. My my it was awesome
I hear ya.. My attitude towards shooting (hunting) sure changed many years ago. I was shot through the left calf. I was 17 at the time. If i know i can't put said animal down on the first round i don't pull the trigger. No matter what it is. I was off my left leg for 6 months. for 2 months i couldnt have my left calf lower then my heart or the pressure was painful. I respect your look on hunting. I did not mean to come across as if i didn't. sorry that it read that way.

Great looking buck. Our Southern Tier opens this morning. I doubt I will go out. Too many in the woods on that day. I might go out mid week.

My Brother Brad got this Buck the first day of Bow season up in West Central IN.. It field dressed at 204lbs and scored 147. His wife helps dress it and drag it out to the truck! She's a keeper!
He has passed several years on small bucks and bad shots and was rewarded for waiting this year, Way to Go Little Brother!!

Today was opening day here. I wanted to go, but did not. My old 1995 Ford F150 finally gave up the ghost on the way home from work yesterday, its tranny has been shifting bad for quite some time, and now it will shift whenever it has a notion too. That is just one of its many problems. So, I went and bought a good used truck today instead, a 2006 GMC 1500. My son and I are headed for the woods tomorrow.

The buck has a rough green score of 186 1/4" gross.
Have no idea what he weighed in at, we don't have to weigh them anymore. I do have my own scales but I couldn't find them until it was too late. He would have dressed well into the 200's.
It is doe harvest time for the most part now, have to refill the freezer. We process everything ourselves and deer and wild pork is mostly what we eat all year.
Brian, that is a great deer. My wife and kids really enjoy hunting. They all are very good at it, it has become a family ritual to restock the food supply.
