BTW are you ever going to get new camo,or are you intentionally going for the retro look?
It hasn't worn to the point of replacement yet and I don't think it's hurt my sucess.

Btw, I bought that coat in 1986 and still wear it. How many people can still wear the same size for 20+ years?[:-]
You have had that figure for 20+ years[:'(]

Josh I do not know WV numbers, but I bet your buck harvest is way more than your doe harvest is, is this correct?
I havent taken a buck in two years, due to lack of hunting time, but I've taken 7 does in that time. Total, I've taken 12 bucks, and 21 does, 5 of those bucks 3.5 or older, during my hunting career.

Josh, point well taken. I agree on not to belittle somone for shooting what they want. Good luck this year. I didnt mean to attack you, and i apoligize if i came off that way.

I am talking entire state, not you, LOL sorry

Let me ask you this

If WV had an OBR(One buck Restriction) do you think it would change the what hunters shoot in WV?

I'm actually looking at 6 does in my back yard right now, and debating where to set up on them for opening day


No offense taken bow.


What it really boils down to (with me), is I dont need to pop a 1.5 year old 4 point to prove my manlihood, but given the oppertunity to fill my freezer, I'll gladly take any deer that makes it worth me dressing, dragging, cooling, and processing, and I'd like to think that I'm not a bad representativefor hunting.

Josh,
As long as your an ethical hunter and you abide by the laws then no matter what you shoot,and aslong as your a proud hunter, you do nothing but good for our sport!

having lived in this state for as long as I've been, and chasing off tresspassers almost daily, I really dont think it matters what the state sets the regulations as. There arent NEARLY enough game wardens to enforce the current seasons. Its nothing to hear 10 - 15 gun shots an evening within a mile or so, and I live in a development!.
