I hope your reading this bud
I can understand why you would be a little upset at all these yahoos running around in the bush.It is public land?
Have you seen the "HOG" recently?
Good luck with the 8 point as well,sounds like a good one as well.

LOL about the little 4 pointer.I had a spike do this to me last year as I was sitting along some cedars.He just stood there and looked at me from about 7 feet away.I was getting a little nervious,his head was down and he was inching closer and closer.I seen the daggers on top of his head--lol--and decided to end the stair down.I said boo,and the poor bugger almost jumped out of his skin,he jumped about 3-4 feet in the air and took off,never to be seen again.He got a good lesson that day(Curiousity can kill the cat)
Good luck to ya john
