Another great night! We saw three different bucks in the last hour of light either with a doe or on the hunt for one…
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

Nice bucks, no jaw droppers, but any would go home with me.  Good shots, hard to get focused on the animals in such brushy country.  Would be hard to squeeze a bullet through some of that brush also.

Yet to see anything this season that is trigger worthy but a great time in the timer…

The Pan Handle is thick, much thicker than it looks on satellite.  But not soaking wet rodies and salal 2 feet over your head thick.
