Last season, my contest entry buck was my first and only birthday deer as well. I've tried for many years to take a birthday buck, I either tagged out before it, Nov 10th or nothing presented itself that particular day. My friend and hunting buddy Q2INWHITETAILS (on HNI) was with me, his bday is the 12th and we tried to tag him out that day too. Unfortunately this year, our season ends on the 11th...LOL sorry Kurt.
