Guess you took the buck in your avatar pic prior to when you started doing that?

What do you mean by that? Are you criticising the buck in Gregs avatar?

I already explained. Please read again. I criticized the hypocrasy of your ranting against the shooting of button bucks while shooting an inordinate number of them yourself. You made the mistake of disclosing the hypocrasy and a bunch of us were appalled by it and told you so.

Obviously you can't support your baseless accusation so again, please, stop with the hijacking. This thread is for hunters to relate their stories of the season. This thread was exactly that till you started this crap. Why cant you leave any thread alone?

That he pointed out the truth, perhaps?

I think if those same hunters stopped and got a Happy meal they would be less inclined to kill a a deer that is 180 days old ands is as weary as Shi zue.


You are the very problem that you are trying to cure.

Why would he need to retract the truth? Is that something like placing an archery tag on a buck killed by a WCO?

I remember that Greg. As I recall, you mounted this one yourself didnt you? I'd proudly display that buck as you have especially considering where it came from and if I'd done such a nice job on the mounting!

Absolutely not. Anyone should shoot whatever makes them happy. But if he thought enough of that buck to have it mounted, and have it as his avatar... Im just guessing he aint passin' up much. He stated hes been "selective" for years. Guess Im just wandering exactly what it is he's passing up when hes shooting bucks with 13.5" inside spreads, 1.5" browtines and 15" main beams.

I had thought he was hunting in a 4 pt. area like us too, but appears its 3 so i guess my bad.

Now Jim, you know you can't just go around saying things like that. You need to sugar coat the truth so everybody feels good about themselves.
