I'm gettin in early because I want to win Tooln's knife! If you vote for me I'll reduce inflation, fix immigration, and stop the channeling of funds to the war in Ukraine. :)

A little scrape action...

I can't do everything @Catscratch can, but I can go set up a new trail camera and have a buck walk in and get a picture of him with me standing there.

I feel so unworthy. I can’t do any of those things, but I did pass this deer.

Edit - Forgot to mention that I also stayed in a Holiday Inn Express three years ago.

Nice 13+ pointer NH. Big H3 mass on that side too. Any knowledge of that guy? Good tough pass! Pretty picture as well.

Thanks Mort. This is on my 20 acre place. I had him a lot early spring and then he was gone for weeks. Right about rut time he was back and was showing up on camera nearly every day. After I shot 3 coyotes over there, he went nocturnal for a few days but then started showing up in daylight again before season was over. I do know he made it through gun season, because I've had pics since it ended.

I think he is only 3. I can't place him in pics from last year. I'm assuming he filled a hole when I took out an old bully buck last season.

Good looking buck, Native. A pass with faith!! If he were in Pa., there'd be so much lead flying it might block out the sunlight.

Thanks Bows. All my neighbors would shoot that deer, but I’m hoping he can survive. I feel somewhat better now that the worst danger has passed.
