Some of the shots that we don't take are just as meaningful as many of the shots that we do take. there is a lot of wisdom in that statement.... we had a winter kill in 95-96 i believe spring south slope count on my driveway went from over 100 count to 30 did'nt kill anything for 2 years , there was twin mulie bucks that had beautiful racks, much better to let them build the future herd. norm

true dat. I did take a cull buck on opening weekend. Oh yeah, after all the deer left Saturday evening, a group of jake turkeys wandered in. I'm having wild turkey for Thanksgiving Tex, Nice rifle. My grandfather bought his Win. M-1907 .351 WSL brand new in 1909. For thirty years it was his only rifle. He took several deer with it and a few woodchucks. It sits in my safe as I type this. Your picture prompts me to get it out into the sunshine once again. Thanks for sharing.

that is what I keep telling myself. Hopefully everyone else gets the memo and lets him go, as well Last year I let a nice young 7 point go and he hopped the fence and got killed by the landowner's 10 year grandson
