John:

I totally understand where you're coming from. I feel the same way. I've got friends in the Eastern side of the state that tell me to come down and shoot whatever I want to. I've got a family of 14 that I'v donated 2 deer to.....and I went down and shot a deer for them earlier in the year. Would I shoot that deer at home? Nope. I've sent one to the taxidermist.....and I might not be a good teammate in the HNI contest next year. I'm gonna be a doe slaying machine, though.

I'm hunting4 deer for next year. A nice 8 Rob/PA and I saw....a BIG bodied 8 that's the bull of my woods.... a nice, wide 8 that I didn't see this year (other than on trail cam)....and a 10 that I JUST heard of that someone saw in MY woods!

It should be fun.
