I like small talk...
Congrats on the trip to AK (Hint of jealousy in voice) Guss!
Sounds like you'll have a very decent season Alex (Again, jealousy...)!
I just checked my property last night, and walked into a herd of two dozen deer, right where I intend to put a ground blind. There were seven bucks, and two lookers. Im pretty sure one of them is the one (4 inch drop tine - Pope & Young easy)I grunted in just before I killed my spike (first trad kill) last November.
All jealousy aside, sounds like you guys will have a great season. Congrats!
