So, you think that because there are big bucks on MH's property, and a good number of them, that he'll be able to stoll out into the woods whistling Dixie and pop a 160" class buck in the first hour of opening day?
If I thought that I would have said that.


I have little doubt that MH will get a chance at a nice buck this year, but he has put in countless hours in the off season (obviously) and will log many hours on stand to get that buck.
What does one have to do with the other?? I know many guys that will do the same and not even see one buck of that caliber.


He may not get one, there is no guarantee.
If you had to bet your house on it which would you pick??



Few here could argue that the Drury's farms and properties are some of the best managed properties for trophy bucks around. Two seasons ago Terry Drury failed to connect on a buck with his bow.
WOW...........he went a WHOLE YEAR without dropping a monster buck with his bow??? I don't know how guys like him find the strength to fight through such adversity. He is truely a warrior.


Does that make him a bad hunter?
I guess that would depend on whether you think when he connects makes him a good hunter.



These are old, mature animals that have evaded death long enough to get to that age. You still have to put in the hours and get past their defenses.
So do you honestly believe that the hunters who are crafty and clever enough to accomplish this just happen to live in Iowa, Kansas, Ohio, Illinois, etc????

Really?
