I let a nice 10 point go opening morning. It was at 160 but did not give me an angle that I liked. I had three 4 points that I could have taken, and no telling how many does I counted coup on.
I saw 3 big bucks the first two days of the season, then they got scarce. The second one was following a doe across the pasture out of range, and the last was in the woods, and too much brush to make a clean shot.
I start again on 23 December thru 2 January. I need to not be so picky the last half of my season. I have a hard time shooting the Does I see almost daily in the pasture.

Good luck Monday.
