Of course location is important. It's true that you have to hunt where they live in order to shoot one, but the point is, record book bucks live almost everywhere.

Yes, they even live in North Carolina.

Note that these are bow hunting records, there may be some gun kills that are even bigger.

It gets tiresome to hear some newbie continuously whine and cry about not having any big bucks where they live. Granted, they may not be at the same level as the bucks from the midwest, but they approach and even make B&C. (google record book bucks of NC).

Fact: P&Y bucks do live in NC.

Don't tell us you can't kill what isn't there.....THEY ARE THERE!!! GO FIND THEM!!!

GMMAT,
The reason I don't go back and read ANY of what you tell me to is because I already know what I'm talking about when it comes to hunting deer. I have self confidence.

You on the other hand start spouting off other peoples names and rattling off their quotes because.............. you're a newbie and have no self confidence, experience with big bucks (over 107 inches) and you'd rather argue than learn.

Again, please stop with the nonsense and crying............ it's pathetic.

You've never heard that from me. Let's keep this on the up and up. You've never heard that from me.

Nobody's crying, whining or acting like a CHILD, but you.

You know, though.....you keep talking about how much I "don't" know and haven't experienced in my 2 years. I've never made this about me and you. You're CONSTANTLY bringing up my ineptness or my inexperience, though. Sol...tell me, LEGEND....how does my 14 whitetails, including 5 bucks (two of which will make my state's Bowhunter's Assoc. book) and 1 bow turkey compare with your first two years? Im not tooting my own horn....just trying to see what I should be striving for.

I think that a 12 year old shooting a running 6 point buck with a recurve and sharpen with a file broadheads beats your whole career, Loser.

I 100% disagree. I have 0% experience compared to you guys BUT, this makes no sense to me, correct me if im wrong, let me know if im right.

GMMAT's deer (the bull) was 4.5 and scored 103-1/8. So your saying that a 4.5 yo in a PRIME location will only be in the 100's? Let the Bull walk 5.5.....6.5.... I bet he would make 120ish at best and thats alot of "IF's" But you take a 4.5 yo in PRIME location and he's gonna make a 100" buck look like a spike...

Like many things in life, it's not about the quality of the first chapter you write, it's about the quality of the whole book you have written.

Greg:

Why do you HAVE to make this personal? I don't understand. You make me laugh, though.

With some of the trail cam photos I've seen from where you hunt......You sorta remind me of a penthouse pet bragging about getting laid at a frat house.

Look above, GMMAT. Did you call me legend? [:-]


Also, remember that most times you're the only one that thinks your humor is humorous.

I didn't do that Greg. I think the board just defaults to that when us mortals type your name, now.

I need to be positive and not negative in these threads.
Work in progess and I will get there.

Tony

I don't believe.....I KNOW I never said anything of the sort. That I can assure you of. Why in the world would you say that?
