Seth- Ya he comes home every once in awhile...last year he bought a gun tag, and sucked it up.. he seen 38 deer opening morning but the biggest buck was around 120" so he waited...on the evening of day 2 he seen the 120 again and shot at it 4 times, never touched it, shot at another buck 3 times, out of shotgun shells he switched to his .357 and on day 3, the last day he shot 8 or 9 times and FINALLY killed a mature Doe.
