Ahhh but see, you would not feel like it was harsh unless in some corner of your heart you in some way felt that that buck was misrepresented. Like silence is indicative, your defensiveness is telling. LOL I'm really just messin' round Rob, I hope you know that.

As for all the other comments:

Guys, this was really a compliment to Rob and a smash (so to speak) on myself. I know that our bucks have identical scores. I even think I know according to what Rob said to me in hisBBD thread that mine is probably a good 20-30lbs heavier. (~220 dressed)

I applaude the time and skill utilized in the taking of Rob's pics. I however do not have good quality equipment or a good camera man. Honestly, I'm thinking about investing in a camera but allthe pics that you see posted by me are just from my phone.

I just want some of you to remember that some of us don't have the time, equipment, or perhaps even the desire to take top quality pics. Which ever it is, frankly is fine by me. Like I said in the "take good pics or don't take them at all" thread, I took the time and knelt down beside this magnificent creature and give thanks to the creator. The picture you seedoes not tell that tale because when I did that, the means were not there to capture that moment. This was also the only time I had during daylight hours to take a pic before sending him off to the taxi. The quality or lack thereof of that pic certainly does not take away the respect I have for the sport, that creature,or its creator.

Peace brothers!
