My family likes the meat from smaller bucks much better. I think my wife is, consequently, way more supportive of my hunting than she would be if I was spending money putting antlers on the wall from bigger bucks that didn't taste good. I've saved my little antlers in hopes that I can use them to make knives or something someday when I have time...

Nice buck. I didn't see a single buck yesterday. My son has an either sex tag, and we saw plenty of does, but he wanted to wait to see if we see either a buck or a larger doe that he can take.

Thats a nice deer for this area. :good: .
You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

Nice buck! He sure has high antlers. Congratulations Bennie.
Now, don't try to get away! I am more muscular, more cunning, faster, and larger than you are, and I am a genius. Why you could hardly pass the entrance examinations to kindergarten.
