    Well he finally showed back up. I usually start getting pictures of him in June but this year he was late for the show. I just figured he didnt make it through winter after I wounded him. By the pics it looks like he has recovered and is fine. Im still not real sure what to think of it but Im sure glad he is healthy.

    Is Ernie the deer you made a bad shot on last season? I hope you get to redeem yourself! More importantly I hope we get to see it happen on camera this season on BHOD!!!!

    If you miss that deer again, I'm going to personally hunt you down and give you an atomic wedgie with vise grips and a fork lift.

    Im going to go back and look through some more pics to compare but I think he is bigger. Looks like he has some junk starting on his left side g3 plus his g4s look like they are bigger. I didnt get any great pics of him but I did add another camera to the back yard plus adjusted the one that got the picture so It would be up higher.

    :lol: Think about that this fall when he's ten yards in front of you. Then if you miss again, you can blame it on me. :lol:
