Well I believe since we have the rights of assembly and free speech a group of friends ought to be able to gather and discuss pretty much whatever they want. Just make sure you’re not putting one of your guns in the hands of a felon and you’re probably alright. I wouldn’t be worried.

+1 that's awesome! Congrats to them, that is very cool to double.

That's one impressive haul Yotebuster. Nice work!

Nice! Looks like fun. You fishin all day and hoggin all night? We need some more pictures

Sounds like an incredible young lady. Congrats to her and good job parents!

Wow they look great! Good for him.

An adventure in the wild with Dad, that's the best stuff there is.

No worries, I'm on it.

Congrats to you guys! Nice work.

^^^^ This is it. If you did all you could do, then you go home with some good memories and be thankful for the time in the woods, which is it's own reward.

Exactly my thought too. I've gotten dozens of cats on cam and never seen an area shut down because of it. I've had lions on cam over night, then had deer on the same cam a few hours later, but every spot I have is variable based on the time of year. My summer spots aren't worth poop during the rut & some of my rut spots seem pretty desolate during the august hunt.

i bought a stinger for my 16 y.o. daughter this year as she had out grown her old Parker youth bow. Very nice shooting little bow for the price. She shoot's out to 40 yards with it pretty well. Plenty of steam, even at 33# draw weight.

Sounds like they were polite and on their way in before you ever showed up. Can’t see how they did anything wrong. I wouldn’t change my plans for the morning just because somebody blew by me on a dirt road

Good stuff. Thank you for sharing with us!

Awesome buck and last years was nice too! Good for you, congrats!

Very cool! Congrats and way to stick with it!

Congrats to you guys! Sure looks like a great season

Nothing wrong with a freebie now and then. Congrats to both of you!

That’s one awesome ram! Congrats to you.

Good luck mulepacker. Hope you and the family have a safe and memorable hunt. Can't wait for the picks, you guys always do it up right!

Congrats to you! Nice coues buck.

IMO trophy hunting has some very big pluses for hunting overall. People voluntarily going home empty handed while waiting for a biggin keeps success rates lower which in turn allows for greater tag allotment and for an otc archery hunt. I think it’s pretty admirable that some people are disciplined enough to let deer after deer walk by in the pursuit of something special. Good for them. However, they should not take their personal standards and use them as a soap box from which they can look down on the rest of us. We each get to set our own standard and it doesn’t make anybody a lesser hunter or person for shooting a smaller deer. Some people are new to the sport and just excited to be successful, some people have disabilities that physically limit them, some have lack of time, and some just enjoy the meat and don’t really give a crap about the antlers. All are entitled to harvest whatever fate allows and their own personal standards accept. I love seeing the pics of people with their first kills sitting there grinning ear to ear while holding a spike or little forky in their hands. That enjoyment and excitement is the best part of the sport.
