Congrats to both of you!
I saw lots of bucks, lots of does during this gun season, but none bigger than last year. Missed MZ season and part of early archery to our travels.
I try to always take one bigger every year, going 8 years once without taking a buck following that guideline.
The exception being mature 6 points or really freeky racks. We don't want those in the herd.
Still have a lot of meat in the freezer from a big buck last year and had some amazing elk steaks tonight for dinner, so not missing any meals of my favorite meat.
Back to archery season, so there is still a chance.

Congratulations @undeg01 and friend!
Don't know about ya'll but I'm fixin to get me a mess of "corn fed " squirrel to go with my breakfast eggs....little suckers are getting fat.
I fought squirrels for years in my backyard and finally threw the while flag and accepted defeat. They now have their own feeder as my award to them for their victory. They are also getting fat and lazy. Spoils of war I guess.
On opening evening of archery season 2020, I was in a ground blind under a cedar and got pretty dang close to this happening. She knew something wasn’t right but couldn’t smell me or get me to move, so eventually, she gave up and moved on. I really expected her to blow my cover and ruin the hunt.
