Congrats guys! xraytrapper, my 8 point is a small one, the rack is no bigger than his ears. BUT, the park has too many deer, so while I wouldn't have shot this one on private land, I am there at the state park "working" for them, so it went down.
Some guys will not shoot a doe there at the park and only want to shoot a large buck. That's not what this hunt is about, and if the biologists think that is happening, they will confiscate ALL antlers when the deer is checked in.
They really want you to shoot 3 does, but the hunt regulations say 3 deer, only one can be an antlered buck. So, I shoot the first 3 legal deer that I see.
I heard that there were 2 bucks taken in the 150 class, but one was recovered the next morning. Coyotes had eaten most of it during the night.
