Dec 21, 2013 08:19 | #8 Wonderful shots. You can see he's in full rut with the tarsal glands soaked and his mouth open tasting the wind. Somewhere, there was a doe that was very glad you had his attention. ha, ha. Shoot first and ask questions later.

I would love to be that close to such a great whitetail spot. "Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.

Were you able to shoot him at all this year? How about the campground buck? Is he still as habituated as he was a couple years ago? Tom - Petey is doing well, just getting older like all of us. He is "only" an 8 pointer this year. But he did have a couple of gals with him during the rut so that part is good. He hangs out on the ridge between the Primitive Baptist Church and Hyatt Lane mostly. The campground buck has moved to the new horse pasture area on Sparks Lane and seems to not be quite as habituated as in years past .... his new thing is to crawl under the fences instead of jumping them!
