well just think how much bigger he will be next yr! have to think possitive and he'll be there next yr! lol
Deer that size around my property, with the neighbor I have and his feeding operations, don't make it till next year.
I hear you, I have the same issue's here, but every now and then one or two make it, after all that isn't a 1 yr old buck, so he made it a few yrs as is, just stay possitive and believ he will make it one more , its all we can do till we hit that powerballl lol
and then buy enough land to gorw them as big as we wish !!
Congrats on the nice buck and doe blackbeard. I had been missing all of your updates while the site was down, so it is nice to have caught up on them and its nice to see you including your boys in the hunt.
Heck of a story. Great buck and I really like how you got you boys involved. I love it. Congrats to you.

12/02/13- AM (gun hunting). Hunted in a ladderstand in the middle of my overgrown field. Lots of shooting all around starting at 7:15. Only one shot close, probably 200 yards away. Jumped a deer going in at daylight, at 7:45 a spike walked past me at 25 yds and worked a scrape in front of me, at 8:15 two does were browsing in the field about 60 yards away, and at 9:30 a decent but small 8pt walked in from behind me and ate sumac berries on his back feet at 25 yds.
12/04/13- AM (gun hunting). Jumped a deer right at daylight bedded in some big pines where I was going to sit overlooking a corner of a pasture field. Went up where I figured it was bedding and found a fresh bed and lots of poop. Looks like a buck has been bedding there often. Sat in the pines for about an hour then got up to take a walk up a dirt covered road through the property. Walked about 150 yards and looked up the road and saw antlers. Crouched down and snuck to within a 100 yds and it was a decent 8pt eating honeysuckle/briar leaves and possibly tending a doe. Watched him for awhile before he and the doe got spooked by something else and walked away quickly away. There was another deer with them that I never got a good look at. If I had a buck tag I had a decent 100 yd shot at him before he started walking fast. Pretty exciting morning.
