Ive eaten 13" wide 8 points.
Theyre delicious.
We have some 150 plus class deer around.
Little spots of woods w ag, and roads, and pressure.
Most around us are of the brown its down and as a result the overall deer pop is low.
We have poaching too.
Its a tough gig
Weve killed 4 deer over 125" off our little spot.
In ten yrs. Hell I never saw an antler this past season and have had other seasons like that there.
Its not a great spot, but can be decent.
I have hunted excellent ground where back in the 80s you could damn near throw a rock and kill a 100" 8 point.
See herds of deer, in season. Seen over 40 a day in gun.
Hell, i saw the same 4 deer in bow and gun this past yr.
My buddy saw them, a 3 pt and the 145" he shot
Its hard to burn vac time freezing for such low % hunting.
Esp after having hunted better ground.
