Good luck on your next run, I'm rooting for a big one!  :tup:
Thanks Dale. I need all the rooting I can get :chuckle: Sunday was day 41 in the unit and I'm no closer to a dead buck than I was on day 1 at this point. Pretty much need this smart old boy to make a really dumb move. Based on the fact he's still alive is proof he's never made a dumb move in his life so the odds aren't exactly in my favor  :chuckle:

Even if unsuccessful you will know you put in an extreme effort, and if you could somehow get a photo of your target buck, even a long range photo of that buck for the wall, it would be something to look back on to remember the hunt and the buck forever.

He's made plenty of dumb moves but has just been lucky enough that someone wasn't sitting on top of him when he did it. I hope you are there the next time he screws up!

For the official word I asked the "magic eight ball" that's sitting on my desk if Karl gets his buck in unit 290 this year and it said "All signs point to yes".  So there ya go nothing to worry about.  :tup:

It’ll be the last day. Deer will be moving and you’ll be in the right spot at the right time.

Pulling for you.   It's got to be tough with archery in that unit.

Hoping it's Karl's!
I keep checking this to see his buck of a lifetime.
