Huge I shot one that dressed at 166 2 seasons ago.

Glad I'm American!

Not what i wanted to hear. Lol I appreciate the info good luck locally.

Wow congrats to all making me get excited for Tuesday

Great story I also shot a 6 for my first deer followed by a few Busch lights!

I second that. Considering my first hunt of the year in delevan since I think the ellicottville spot is buried

Scum. And I hate Scum lol.

Just thought I'd share a pic that I came across on my phone. This is a 4 that I took a few years back and took another big one this season. I'm starting to like 4 pointers lol

Wow great buck bud. Hope to get one like that next week!

My grandad bought the one I use and passed it down to my father. He gutted his first deer with it, my dad gutted his first deer with it, as did I. Surprisingly it's still in great shape and very sharp. It's an old buck knife.

Sorry for the loss. I like those boats alot actually.

I like it a lot I could get down to 1.5 no problem at all and never had a problem with putting it up or down. I really like the safety it provides if you throttle up before the plate is up it doesn't break anything at all. Had it on my boat all year from April to October which was in the water most of that time and have no complaints. Definitely recommend it.

Moving to a kicker myself this year my plate worked well all last season it's the happy troller. Sorry about the derail I'm done now. Lol

My buddy has one on his bass rig and no complaints. Good luck with the sale

What a shame

Probably tastes awful

Yep just for me no doubt shooter at 2.5 don't care about "immature vs mature" at this point in my hunting career that 2.5 is a trophy.

My biggest buck is a 110 inch 8. Seeing big deer makes my heart pump like nothing else expect maybe the other type of large rack.

Na I'd shoot it then wish it was a yearling when looking at it on my tailgate! Pull a stubby. Lol jk

I'd pass at it at 1.5 shoot it at 2.5 and 3.5 and try to control my shaking to shoot it when it's older. I've seen the article. Beautiful buck.

A few colleagues of mine hunt Darien but I've never got an invite... That's why I don't say a few friends of mine hunt Darien. Lol

I wish I had the option to "see" the same buck next year as a better buck. I've tried many times over and very rarely see the same buck that I'm hoping to see. It has happened but not regularly. With that said we have tons of small 4s 6s 8s etc. Some are not 1.5. (Proven). I shot a 4 this year that was 2.5. With that said if I see a buck and I want to shoot it I don't hold back. I usually look at the body size more than the antlers. Not that I don't like big racks . I passed lots and lots of small racked bucks during bow only to drop one the first weekend of gun.

Yeah if I saw a dog while I was in the woods I wouldn't shoot it unless it was an immediate threat to myself or a hunting partner, looked very sick, or was a coyote.

Agreed the buck I shot this year had an option to go up or down, he went straight up the hill, but only made it forty yards
