Sounds like you guys are all over 'em. I'm sure it won't be long before we get on the board again.

Last night at 6 p.m., I passed on the biggest buck I've ever passed up.

We hunted all day, nobody saw a deer. Finally last night, I broke the ice with a beauty of a 4x5.Probably 105-115", maybe 16" outside, 4-5" brows, 7"ish G2's & G3's, and a 1.5-2" G4 on the left. Nice mass, not huge, but at least average. If deer have nine lives, he was down to about 1 or 2 by the time he finally left.

In PA that's a shooter buck without a moment's hesitation. I just wasn't ready to burn my Ohio NRtag on the firsthunt.

I was really second-guessing myself until right at dark, whena really big buck crossed the creek bed below. I couldn'treallyestimatehis score, just know that he was a definite shooter.
