    Sit in a tree in 40 MPH wind first season and worsening hunting conditions this season. Been passing on this buck but it was getting late in the game so I decided to take him

    Yeah, he had it first season 2 weeks ago. It was hanging out this season. Didn't seem to bother him much.

    The 82" antelope my buddy got in 2015 in Wyoming while I was helping him was blind in his left eye!
