Meat!!

[bigtex]

After a miserable year last year with very few deer sightings and zero buck sightings this year is starting out better.
I didn't see any bucks during the archery season but did see a doe or two on every sit. I don't have any trouble with someone shooting does, i know it is a valuable management tool where needed. I've done it and have no regrets but on property where does were plentiful. On my property where the deer population is small I just don't do it. All this to say I love venison and try to put a couple in the freezer every year and have no problem shooting any buck I am fortunate to see on my property. A buck with a nice set of antlers is nice for sure and i've been blessed to have killed more than a few over the years, but my number one priority is meat for the freezer.
I was fortunate yesterday evening to kill this 2.5 year old seven point, not a monster by any means but I was tickled to take him, I would of shot him if he had just been a spike. I still have another buck tag and I might be a little more "picky" on the next one but on the other hand.............maybe not lol. .

Meat in the freezer my friend

Meat in the freezer is just as good as a head on the wall sometimes. It's all about what means the most to you.

Sometimes the freezer comes first. If you're lucky then you may have time afterwards for hunting the big boy.

That's a good buck. Plus it's meat in the freezer.
