No big deal, DD. Winning is always nice, but I don't sign up for these things planning on winning...just makes it more fun to keep up with a few other folks and talk about how our seasons are going without posting it on the entire forum.
This was my best season by far to date, and I didn't even take a buck. But, my wife did and it was her first deer! I took 4 does and passed on 19 different bucks. Three good shooters, but they were during bow season and out of range. This year I really started focusing on management...some of the bucks I passed on were hard to let go...but hopefully this time next year I will once again be saying that it was my best season to date because of the 1??" buck I killed!
Good luck to the few who may still be hunting, and enjoyed talking with everyone.
