Default Finally scored in Massachusetts

Not a big boy and not a great pic either, but I have been hunting very hard here in Western MA this bow season. I have seen very few deer. I took a couple of does earlier in the season. This is the 1st buck I have seen to shoot at after hours in the stand.
He is just a little 6 point. I took some nice pics in the field w/ my cell phone, but they came out very small. I am trying to figure out how to make them larger w/out them getting fuzzy.

Western, great job! To me, when you hunt hard/long, and it pays off in any way, then you are a success. Great buck.

Planter,
We hit Beartown and October Mtn when gun season rolls around... It is getting so hard to find good hunting land out here. Most of the spots I get permission to bowhunt are 5-10 acre pieces that you can't gun hunt. I will still bowhunt some of these spots when gun season comes and the deer get pressured into them.
We get a small crew together and still hunt the ridges on Beartown and Oct. Mtn. A friend also has 275 acres in Blandford that we gun hunt. Big deer in those woods!
