Default What the heck do I do now

I know this isn't a bad position to be in and many would envy me but I shot my first archery buck on September 20th then last night got a good doe for my second deer of the season. I've really stepped up my game and it's paid off big time I'm really thankfull I got these 2 deer I don't now if it's better luck or more knowledge but I'll take it either way.Idon't need anymore meat so unless I find someone that wants a deer I'm not going to be able to shoot anymore and have it go to waste. It's a hard situation actually because I can legally take 5 deer but my family certainly can't eat that many. I may buy another bonus tag just to go sit in my stand. Had it not been my first archery buck I would have passed on it because I saw a bigger buck last night and if thatdeer makes it threw thehunting season and winterI'mputting my sight's on him fornext year I've already committed to hold out for that buck next year at least until November hopefully he stays around my property. Prime time is right around the corner my stands are in good spots my hunting gear and bow are perfectly tuned and here I sit. Don't get me wrong I'm very thankfull for the buck I shot (there's one lesson learned right there---hold out for a bigger deer) and it was an expierence I'll never forget espesially having to wait overnight to recover it and learning stuff in the mean time because I applied what I learned shooting that buck to the doe I shot last night and made a good clean shot and had the deer gutted and at the butcher in less than an hour. I'm not sure what to do maybe I'll just bring my camera out and see what I can catch on film.
