Have you neversaw anyone sticking up for their buddy before?
Bowhunting legend in my own mind???? Please you know nothing about me.
140 inches is a lowend buck eh
? When I grow up I want to be just like you. My largest continuous localfarm is 125 acres with30 acres of woods. I mostly hunt public ground so I have room to move arounda bit. A"low end" 3.5 is perfectly acceptable to me. I work hard for what I shoot and could care less what you think about it.
With all your expert advice and downgrading of peoples choices I don't recall you shooting a buck since I joined this board, I have saw some old photos but nothing recent.

Sticking up for a buddy..... LOL, is that what you're calling it? Hey, atleast one person here thinks you're all that.... I bet he's like a lil' brother to ya?
It would seem that you waste far to much of your time trying to convince folks like GMMAT that you're an expert hunter. Give us a guys a break that do know ya. But it is the Net so you can be whomever you want to be here bud. It's your story, tell it like you want to.
So you hunt small farms..... who cares? Does that qualify you for expert status or does that mean that you really must have a ton of bucks in your area for no more property than you hunt? I'm not going to feel sorry for ya, it's pretty much the average sized property in many areas. I would like to see how easily many of the forum members here could kill deer on your properties? I don't have any reason to believe that theywould have to workextra hard? I mean come on....it's Ohio and if it's even slightly managed property,a 3 1/2 year old 140" gross buck that you chest thump aboutisn't rare that's for sure.
You question GMMAT's ability.... why? He seems to know just as much about whitetail as you do and perhaps even more about what it takes to manage property and make some changes. He's killed as manyy deer as we've seen from you plus he's tagged a buck as old as anything you've taken. Don't make tha fact that his buck doesn't score as well any less of an acomplishment, remember not all of us here are spoiled by living in a big buck hotspot!
Are you serious about "my" bucks? I KNOW you've seen me around many different forums for a longtime so you should know better. You've seen the animals I've taken, including tha past couple seasons ofmuzzleloader killsand you should know that for the last couple seasons my hunters have taken some excellent bucks.... well by your standards, some awesome bucks!
I spend a great deal of time putting guys onto trophy class bucks and there are propbably a couple members on this forum that have hunted with me and had success.... especially on the caliber of animals that make you chest thump. I've also posted photos on some dandy bucks that we've passed on over the years..... again chest thumpers by your count.
Even the kids that hunt with me seem to be able to get the job done as well as you can.... what's that saying? LOL!
My 11 year old Daughter's '06 buck. Realize that just one more of these guys and she'll have as many decent animals as YOUhave Buckeye! [:-]I wonder if that would make her an expert as well ?
