Bowfantic, yes the rut does make it possible to harvest Mr. Wiley...but thank god we have a equally factor! I still doubt most hunters will ever put down a true trophy year in year out (Min. 150). My vote is still Trophy Mature Bucks. Afterall who looks forward to the RUT for 12 months to hunt Mature Does!!!!!

TFox, sorry to hear you missed the book by a pound...I guess you should have stuffed more lead in her for the "Official Scorer's Weigh in"! I guess that would be unethical...bad hunter thoughts.

I can just see it now, guys will be rushing to the store to buy the new "MONSTER DOES" Part 1. Featuring 12 guide trophy Doe hunts with Team Realtree. (Sorry I couldn't resist after the Team Realtree Post a few weeks back)

Boys & girls, whether it's doe's or bucks you pine for have a great season and best of luck finding "MR. or MRS Right"!
