Some of you guys are so self-righteous. Why can't you just hunt the way you want to and let others do the same? A guy comes on and shares a story (not just this one, but tons of others) and unless it is a monster buck, he is bound to take crap from you about the deer. Seems to me the # of posted pics is down from last year. I wonder why. Maybe because people like me are very hesitant to post pics any more because they don't want to deal with those of different views.
Ever stop to realize that if only the trophy hunters existed, hunting might disappear quickly???
I, for one, love seeing people enjoying this pasttime that gives me so much joy and chance to reflect away from the pressures of the modern world. If you want to debate what sort of animals you shoot or what your game management opinions are, by all means, start another post and do it. If you don't have a "great job" or "congratulations" to share, how about trying something novel--like taking your hands off the keyboard, moving one back to the mouse, and continuing on to another post.
That being said, I need to apologize as much as anyone for ruining your post. Thank you for sharing a picture. I hope you will continue to do so in the future, so people like me can enjoy. Most of all, I hope you had a good time hunting even though the game situation wasn't what you expected. For some of us, the experience is worth the animal no matter the size.
