Hey Dave...my wife is pretty sneaky that way.
Mixed emotions...yeah, I suppose. Although he won't go to waste.
You know, the IDNR has been HEAVILY focused on getting people to kill does to help thin the herd for about 5 years now. It's been a few years since anyone I know has killed a really big doe. Always seems like its these miniature does/buttons that get shot. We killed 2 other bucks, decent, not big. Average weight to slightly small. The fourth was a doe, about the size of a dalmation. Course, Gene says they always shrink immediately upon hitting the ground. Similar to the shrinkage I experience from time to time in my livewell.
Knew somehow I'd turn this back to fishing...
