square, i was thinking about that this morning. And at some point, if you dont draw bood, you start thinking "is it really worth it?". My brother killed a couple of smaller deer this year and he was tickled about it. 30yrs ago, we killed whatever we saw, and was tickled about it. Im not saying im going "if its brown its down", but i am saying im going to do what makes me happy. If theres no payoff, then whats all the work for? Were all different, hunting different places, alot pf different situations. My best life is when im satisfied with what i have and dont compare it to others. Its never a fair comparison anyhow, too many variables. Nevertheless, ill have some summer sausage in a couple weeks, my bloodlust has subsided for the moment. God sure is good. Well said! Out here this evening in the rain. Sure hope my son gets one. He’s had a rough year but was willing to take off work and brave the weather this evening, and I honestly don’t care what size deer it is as long as it gives him the hunting rush and he’s happy with!

JW- I agree with do what makes you happy. A few years ago I killed a deer a little smaller than some would kill. A friend made the comment that I probably thought it was bigger than it turned out. I told him I knew exactly how big it was. I just wanted to kill it. I have reached a point whereI do try to let younger deer walk, but I still get excited when I shoot one. I will quit when I stop getting excited about hunting or the kill. My old hunting partners just quit hunting. I now hunt with a couple of younger guys that are relatively new to hunting. Both killed young 8 pts this year that were pretty young. They were both so pumped that I realized that is what it’s about. Being happy. God is good-every day!

I lov to burn some powder JW and don't hav to answer to knowbody when i do it😀 and thats a dang solid deer. Comparisons are usually not like comparison's or even fair - especially on here. Same with any type of hunting. If you dont hav lot of turkeys or hardly any - guess what - you aint killing a lot 🤣🤣
Same with deer - if you dont hav giant deer - you aint killing giant deer and there may be a ton of reasons why you dont hav em and it may hav nothing to do with you on why you dont
Either way - best to b happy w what u got! We blessed to even be able to go. We complain about this states hunting a ton - but lot of states worse off than us
Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self
We need prayer for our country now more than ever

Better late than never, right? I killed this buck today at 3:15pm. I think he had just got up for his evening jaunt to check on his does. He was cruising by himself, no does in sight. As always, I give God all the credit for this buck. I’m very thankful that I get to hunt these magnificent animals. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/cCCZ3Fb7/IMG-1164.jpg)
