Dude....Nobody's giving you "grief".....believe me. You're handcuffed with regulations that I dont have to deal with. That's all. I might change my tune if I were in your shoes......but honestly....I have much time in the NON seasons to scout and photo wildlife. I keep a gamecam up all Summer and have thousands of photos from that.

Just pulling your chain about the bet. I'm going to have them both scored by an official scorer.....ONLY because 100" makes "book" in my state's bowhunter's association. I think they'll both surpass that by 5 or more, each, though.

I went hunting with a friend a few weeks back and he took a DANDY doe from the woods, here. I couldn't have been......wait....I WAS happier seeing him take the deer than if I'd taken her, myself. I know "kinda" what you're saying. I had a weapon....but had NO intention on using it.

Have a great weekend.
