Yea, I have the 26 acres back home (2 food plots the size of a parking space), I hunt with my gf's dad in Mississippi (~500 acres, 20 football field size food plots), and my buddy who lives in Auburn has around 500 acres with some nice plots. As I mentioned, the spike was shot at home. The doe was shot in Auburn. I don't hunt MS usually except at Thanksgiving and Christmas. The few times I was there this year I saw a 3 point and a long cowhorn spike, and tons of does. However, they manage well there so we let the young bucks pass and hoped the does would be live decoys. However, my gf's dad shot an 11 point the week after I left in the exact shooting house I was hunting in. I guess he's put in a lot more sweat equity than me and deserved it more though. Maybe next year......
