I'm from Peoria and was hunting in Peoria county when I killed those bucks. I got the ten sent in to get mounted, but the 12 had some growths on his eyes. Meinders, my taxidermist, told me I would have to get a different cape if I were going to mount that one. Being I didn't really care that much because the first is what kicked it all of and the 10pointer looked better, I just decided to go with mounting him. I must say I'm very grateful for having the opportunity to hunt the handful of spots I do. I can't regret shooting them even though it was both my buck tags already, no matter what walks by its the hunt that counts. And yes I definately plan on shooting does, I'm no head hunter by any means. I will go out and kill at least 4 more does and am hoping I can get at least one out of the way this weekend. Thanks guys and good luck!
