Great pics Buck Magnet, congrats again!!

I just got back from a great weekend of hunting. I didn't shoot anything but had the opportunity on several 80-100in deer! All in all I saw 7 bucks in shooting range over the weekend!

I'm pumped to say the least. When I first saw the 100 +/- deer I thought I was going to shoot him, I mean he was pretty impressive because he was only an 8-point so he had some pretty good length to him. He was walking my way and I'm thinking "here we go!" but the closer he got the more I thought to hold off for a bigger buck. This was at my honey hole and I've seen some 140-160 class deer in the past there. The one I shot last year grossed in the low 140's and he wasn't the one I was aftereither, that dude was even bigger.

So as he passed by at about 15yds I drew...waited.....I just couldn't pull the trigger. Any other year and I would have, he was a good...good buck. But hey I'm in this contest to try to get some good scores so even if I end up eating my tags, it will still be worth it. I've killed plenty of deer over the years so this year I'm hunting for a big deer.....doesn't have to be huge but at least bewell over 100in, this guy was borderline.

Like I said, I saw lots of deer and quite a few bucks, I was surprised, I know there are a lot of deer there, every year there is a lot, but this was unreal....

It's still early and in this area I've seen bucks rutting well into late December and even early January. I saw a buck chasing a doeon the last day of hunting last year so I'm not in a hurry.

Of course this could all blow up in my face and I might not see another shooter buck the rest of the season but again it's a chance I'm willing to take.

I will keep you posted.
