Man it was miserable this weekend... It was hot, and I mean hot (85+ degrees!).

I saw a bunch of deer Friday night, but only saw 2 does on Saturday morning and only saw 2 does walking out of my stand Saturday night. A "buckless" Saturday.

The only buck I saw of consequence was a small basket-racked 8-pointer... He was chasing the does around pretty hard at least!

ORIGINAL: early in

Good choice. I don't think you'll regret passing on him.
+1, he's still got a little growing to do for me as well!!!!

I think you did right...if you had to think about it.

LOL.....I shot a 106" buck in '06 that looks just like him (my biggest, though).
