Rifle season opened her today and I am off again this week for vacation. I shot a 10 point about 8 am this morning and it took several miles and 6+ hours to get him back to the vehicle. Kicked myself all day for shooting him and still am, but too late now. He was 125+ yards in the woods and his head was in some brush for over 5 minutes. I cranked the scope up on 16.5 power and debated for a minute or two and then shot he. His G2's were 7 to 8 inches and the G3's were 6 to 7 inches, but he was only 2.5 years old and I hate to shoot one that young.

Oh well, water under the bridge as the entire time I could only get a few glimpses at the left side of his rack which was the highest. Was hoping to shoot a 125+ buck, but he will taste good as he had tons of fat on him. He will look good on the wall beside his other 2 buddies I have gotten in the past 13 months.

Good luck to all. I didn't buy an extra stamp for rifle so I am done. I may hunt 1 or 2 more days this week with my bow as I have an extra stamp.
