My incredible night hunting!
 
Well I have been trying to stick a doe for a while now and I havent closed the deal thus far. I got in my stand at 5 pm. At 5:25 a grey fox walks by at 20 yards. At 5:45 a nice 8 pointer comes out to get a drink. He was a nice buck but still young; he was a little wider that his ears. Then as soon as he walks out of sight I look back and there is another 8 pointer. This one a little smaller. Then 2 minutes later here comes a Monster 10 point. The 10 point(155") walked within 3 yards of my stand and had no clue I was ever their. Then I had 2-3 more bucks walk out(little ones). I saw at least 6 differant bucks tonight and not one of them ever had a clue Iexisted. All these bucks where within 20 yards of me.Then they started sparring like crazy right under my stand. I sat there for 1 1/2 hours after dark because I could here them still sparring. I never thought it could be this hard to kill a doe. What a night!

Man that just sucks. I think in most counties here there is a limit of 5 and no limit in the rest for antlered deer. The problem is most people don't let the little boys go.

Not sad at all. Here in Wisconsin your allowed one per bow and one per gun season. I believe if you allow multiple tags on bucks you will see a definite decline in numbers and quality. At one a year most people will opt to wait for a quality buck. give them two or more tags and they might take a borderline buck just because they still have a tag.
