Great buck Coop! Congrats!
I'm not buying a firearms tag this year. Just going to do some all day sits with the bow. And then of course go with the smoke pole up at chickenbuck in a few weeks.
Good luck everyone and stay safe!

Heading to Chickenbuck!!! Everyone have a great weekend.
I am out of order until further notice. My "stupid people" filter needs cleaning and my "give a damn" batteries have run out.

Welcome Coop. nice buck too. At least your family tree doesnt have multiple lines heading to each box like those from Wisconsin do. Oh wait a minute. You, um, are from Wisconsin arent ya? In that case, uh, nice buck.

just am gonna hit the hay. but I was over at our land as it was getting dark and saw a dandy 8 pointer. Nice tall tines, prolly 9 inches. Saw a small 8 making rubs and scrapes and chasing does an hour and a half before dark. we all watched him from 600 yards from my uncles farm/our deer camp. got everyone in the mood...well except the does, they werent in the mood apparently.
Coop, Illinois? oh boy. that der is worse then Sconnyville methinks. Bet you are a cubs/bears/pale hose fan, eh?

Hate to change the subject, but I saw my first load of Xmas trees, actually 3 truck loads on Friday.
Hopefully one of the chickenbuck crew is yelling BBD (Big Buck Down) about now.

Scott, I hear you about the trees.
Just returned from a gun show up in the Wausau area. Great show. Lots of room between tables and quite a few exhibitors. Quite a bit of Military hardware which doesn't interest me anymore. There was however, a noticeable shortage of Savage 99's and Win 88's.
