Hey Mike, congratulation on the doe! You are a heck of a lot tougher than I am to be out in the weather that we've had lately. I am getting soft in my old age as I have been sitting inside by the fire!

Congrats Mike. I hope to finish up this year the same way. Just like you for me this was one tough year. Thats some fine shooting!

Great outcome! Good job.

Interesting!

Congrats on the deer and your dedication!

For some reason, I sometimes feel a bit of extra gratitude when I am able to kill a late season deer. I hear the extra gratitude in your words.

I wish I could have held the flashlight for you when you dressed that deer...a chance to learn something I`m sure.

Good job. Hope you find that bruiser from your first image next year . . . and 80 yards closer.

Nice job Mike. I'm hitting it hard this afternoon and all day tomorrow and then as you said the Illinois season is over.

Good for you Mike. I'm without venison for the first time in ages,wish our season ran a few more days than it did but work and weather probably wouldn't have changed the outcome. Way to stay after them!
