Tonight's deer was pretty expensive, too. He snapped off both ACC shafts in him, and both were tipped with Rockets which are basically throwaway heads...

Sounds like a good way to close out the season. Unless you do try to fill that doe tag. Good luck and CONGRATS!!!
I am going to get out a few times next weekend. But the last weekend of the season I have to go to Peoria, IL with my daughter for a Gymnastics Meet, leaving Friday evening and getting home Sunday evening.

Oneshot, there was no pic... He was a 10-pointer.
All we've got around here are whitetails, Greg.

That's funnythat I was just telling my wife about that, Coug... Actually, not bad at all, really. Sure beat the heck out of dragging a 190-lb. lump a half-mile.
But it was enough to let me know I've got to make a concerted effort to get my butt back in shape before I take my elk trip this year.

Reason I asked about the carts, been looking at them. I am 52 now and I am not fond of dragging! Its so wet here right now I'll have to drag or something because I don't wanna drive in the farmer's lane. I wish it would freeze a few days, at least till season is over.....

I know... I only had a 50-yard drag to get him out of the woods, but I was afraid to drive across the wet field for the same reason. Hence the half-mile "pull"...
And hey, I'm 36 and not fond of dragging -- especially not big Illinois bucks.
