Yeah one of my best friends who has been only hunting for about fours years. He doesnt scout or see that there might be deer there. I scout, have a cam, use scents, calls and rattle bags. Last year he shot an really nice 8 point. This year........a 10 point. Im like you have got to be kidding me. I have been hunting for 30 years and have never gotten a deer over 7 points and he does it back to back years. What really makes me mad is.......he has them by 7 am. Oh well..........what can you do but just say "Hey nice deer..............prick!" lol

Hey, if you live long enough you'll find you'll get beat by beginners, seasoned and also just down right crotchetty old farts sometime. Why I've been beaten so much by so many at so many different things I think I'll change my name to RedRibbon.[8D] I just congratulate them and give 'em a slap on the back and wish them continued success. Everyone has their great years and everyone has years that aren't so great comparitively. Don't mean nothin'. Keep on keeping on. May you live long enough to become the crotchetty old rascal that makes them all shake their heads someday. It's suppose to be fun.
