2005 1 Doe 2006 2 Button Bucks 2007 2 Does & 2 Bucks (100" & 110") 2008 1 Doe 2009 2 Button Bucks & 1 Buck (112") **and just for the record before some people bash me for taking button bucks! I take them as a last resort to fill the freezer! The only issue that I have is that in the past 11 years of hunting this property I have never seen so many button bucks in my life than the past 5 years. They are starting to out number the does and I would like a big doe but for some reason not haveing that kind of luck.
I hate taking them but when it comes down to either empty freezer or taking a button buck sorry for the little fella!

Pretty oustanding list from guys in different locations. I am most impressed with Vito, a MI hunter who has not shot a buck(just because he can) shows a lot of dedication in trying to shoot a mature deer in MI. It's extremely hard to do, I am sure he has hunters around him pounding away at 1.5 year olds.
