thats a very nice deer!
Im hunting in montague. Ive heard from all the pros on TV that overcast and nasty cold weather is a great time to do it. I figure maybe this front will kick the does in heat.

BBurton, I talked to the owner of the Bowie Meat Locker last weekend. He told me that he had rattled in a lot of bucks on Saturday and, due to the huge acorn drop, rattling is the only way you are likely to see many deer.
