He was pretty happy with it. Said he had the shakes when it came in. Yours is a nice buck by any means. Better than anything I've ever harvested.

Nice Deer All!
I shot a buck one year with my bow during gun season and yes you have to use a gun tag wear orange and all that jazz. It was super cool just because no one else knew I shot unlike the Bang!

Good info I didn't know that about bow hunting either. ice deer all.

Why do they make there rules so confusing? When it says Archery season is closed during gun season you assume it is closed. When you can still hunt with a bow during gun season on a gun tag doesn't make much sense when they say it is closed. They are good at confusing people.

I know what you're saying, but if you read the regs under legal methods, archery is included. You still have to abide by all firearms season rules. Years ago, I bow hunted in Mingo Wildlife refuge where it is archery only. You were still allowed to hunt there during firearms season, however, you could only use archery equipment. That's how I learned of the rule. BTW, archery season was crowded there but I was the only one on the whole refuge for firearms season.

Nice deer everyone, I'm still looking for a shooter buck. Ready to start fishing.

We had a great year, saw a lot of bucks. My buddy Jon got a monster 10 that we never had on camera. and I killed what was the wide 9 pointer, which was our target buck all season. but he was broke up some when I got him so now he is an 8. Might have the taxi fix him to back what he was a week before I killed him,not sure yet.
My dad and brother also shot small bucks and dad got a doe. Looks like the smokehouse will be full this year, with plenty of leftovers for jerky and burger. Been a while since we stacked em up like this and the first year we have taken 2 wall hangers in one season off our own place. A season to remember!
