    As for his eligibility in either contest that will be decided. I made it a stance that every deer entered in the State contest would have to be eligible for qualifying in the main b.com one. I will await a stance from Fitz on allowance or not. Either way the buck is awesome and who cares about either contest when a brother here downs an awesome buck and his personal best!

    Back in the stand. Should be cool tonight so if a doe gives me a shot I may take it.

    Going out with the gf in a ladder stand. I hate ladder stands, but we are running late.

    Well I contacted Fitz and no word back so I figured I'd go ahead and post this until he says otherwise. As best as I can figure it my buck grosses 137!

    I able to hunt every evening this week, which never happens! I am going to try and locate a buck this week and go after him. Check cameras this week and only had 50 pics or so on both cams and not a single buck! So I am going to try the old fashion way of scouting and sitting in observation stands til I find one.

    Not sure how much I will hunt this week. Going back to the white marsh job but if the assclowns on dirt bikes are still racing through the woods there's not much sense on sitting there. Hoping to get a few morning hunts in there when Sundays open up.

    Hopefully the dirt bikes are only weekend warriors, I would still give it a shot. You never know

    I'm gonna try again during the week. I was hoping to be able to talk with them yesterday before I left and set up a deal with them. I shouldn't have to as they are trespassing but it would be easier than keeping them out all together I think.
