    I guess no one told you that you cannot cut lanes and set up a stand in the same day and hunt out of it. If they did it is good thing you did not listen! Great job and good story, thanks for sharing.

    Thank you everyone. I appreciate the kind words. The meat is at the butcher and the head at the taxidermist. I guess I can be a little picky during the rut now. lol

    That is too awesome man, still excited for you when I saw this earlier today on Facebook! Hopefully I'll be able to find a decent spot on the WMA down the road and get my first deer ever with a bow this year!

    Congrats on your first of hopefully many!! Great photos, too. Love that you're smiling and not trying to look like you want to hurt someone :)
