Bah haa haa, good cheer there TJF! If I ever even tried to do the splits I'm sure you could hear me screaming way up there in North Dakota. Both my hammy's have been torn too many times. I'm lucky now just to be able to staighten my legs. I really like your attitude. I am pulling for you to find and kill the buck you want, contest or not.
ShadowAce, I will keep my fingers crossed that you find a buck bigger than your best so far. [&:] I understand where you are coming from.
Wear, I am confident that somewhere in the "Show me state", a good buck will show himself to you in bow range.
I am glad to hear you have some time set aside to accomplish your goal. Very smart of you, and great news for our team. Good luck my friend.
HighCountry_BrutForce, I know you are just chomping at the bit to get out there and do your thing. I hope you get that 120 class animal that is hanging around your girl friends house (I trust you were referring to a deer
). Goodness knows that 100 inch eight pointer doesn't sound bad either. I'm sure you will do well.
by23856, Don't worry about that waffling issue, like you said in an election year even IHOP can't keep up. I'm confident that if you can get some time, you will kill one of those nice Cornhusker bucks! As they say, "Just Do It!"
Twistedarrow, we know the potential of those Ohio bucks with all of the press they have generated since the Beatty buck. Good luck to you as you take down one of those "Buck(eye)s".
Pay Ely, We know what the deer numbers are in Pennsylvania and what those antler restrictions have done for the size of the bucks. Although you have already done us proud by killing the largest button buck I have ever heard of, I am confident you will bring some horns to the table. Good luck in your quest.
mammasboy, I have hunted in your great state, in fact my Mother was born there, it is an awesome place to live. When things heat up in the rut I know you will be smiling as you send a shaft through the lungs of one of one of those nice Wisconsin bucks. Good luck to you.
Huntndawg7mm, I lived in your great State for about 12 years. Lots of deer, albeit lots of hunters too. Most bucks don't live long enough to reach their full potential. Big deer are few and far between. Still, a branch antlered buck is well within your grasp. If you can get some time to hunt during the last part of October up to the start of gun season, you will do fine (like you don't already know this [&:]). I/we are pulling for you big time, good luck.
To all my bowhunting mates, I know you will do well. With the efforts you guys are putting in, and the great attitudes you have, we will surprise everybody (but ourselves) and win this friendly little competition amongst out hunting brethren.
