Lots and lots of big bucks in my area were already shot during the "T-zone" hunt including a 30 pointer (ya,da turdty pointer) that a cousin has on video and camera. When you see dozens of 3-5 year old bucks lined up at registration stations it makes the real "gun opener" less than thrilling. I do hope to get a shot though, I found some new hornaday ammo that my .270 really loves, 5 shot group covered by a quarter, dead even L-Right and 2" high at 100 yards. That's about perfect in my book.
