RE: buck qustion
You people that live outside of the midwest act as if we can just set up in any tree any knock down P&Y's all year long...Wrong! I have NEVER pulled back on a deer bigger than 130, I have had some moments where it looked as if it might all come together, but something always happened, either he winded me, he decided at the last moment to go right when all indications where that he was going left, pet dogsarriving in my area for the first time ever, somebody coming in the woods an hour late. I could go on and on about "What if's", but I live in Central IL and with the amount of hunting pressure and local idiots who pretend to be hunters, it is not easy unless you maybe fork out $3500 for a guided trip to Pike county or $5000 for Kansas, and me personally, I don't want to "BUY" my deer, if it is meant to be it will someday happen. And if not, it still beats sitting at home watching soaps with the wife.
