Congrats Rick, that's a dandy. For years I've always shot whatever I could- a lot of 6 pts, and does. I resolved this year to be more patient and hunt more days in the hopes of getting a trophy deer. There are some big deer on the property I hunt, I just have to be patient.
And I respect that 100%. As well as hoping you achieve that goal. Whatever your personal goal is, it needs to stay personal. If your not doing it for you, it's just not as fun.
