Enjoyed reading your intro. I consider myself a newbie (hunting 5 years - coming into my 6th year this fall). I, like Postedboys hunt for meat first and trophy second. But for the first time in 5 years I came out of the last season with no meat. It's a bummer and dissappointing, especially on a rainy cold day and I want to make some venison stew, but I'm still young and God willing I have many more years of hunting ahead of me.
