Thanks guys for the thoughts about my mother. I actually was able to do some hunting today.

Success guys! Score one for Team Predators. Not the biggest rack(7 pt.), but a mature, big bodied buck which was estimated to be 5 years old. The buck weighed in at the processor on his scales at 230 lbs field dressed. It took us 3 hours to drag him out. This is the only property I hunt that an ATV cannot be used It just about killed us crossing the 2 wide, deep creeks. Glad they weren't full.

It was a wild morning. First I passed on a 6 pointer only to see him later being pushed around and harassed by my buck. Though I am very happy with my buck, 5 seconds later a larger, big racked buck came onto the scene after hearing the commotion. This other buck was at least 22" wide inside spread, but I do not know how many points. I will give him a try later in the week after buying another set of tags. Pictures later.
