Nice shooten buddy. You should be proud. I guess it was worth not going opening weekend.
Zen without realization of the body is empty speculation. If I could only stop dropping the BOW!!!!!!

I couldn't agree more. Great job Kenny!!!!!

That looks like a beautiful buck!

Nice deer, with a great story to go with it. You most definitely did the right thing, you are a true sportsman.   :thumbsup:

Kenny,

Good story, great buck, and the right choice.  I was reading on the DNR site the other day about this thing, and they say that there is no evidence the meat is harmful to eat.  Hmmm... I surely wouldn't take the chance, though.  I think you did good, and I'd hang that guy on my wall proudly.

Yep, you did the right thing both with the shot and the meat. Better to be safe than sorry. I think your good deed will be rewarded with a memorable classic hunt and we look forward to reading it.

Glad I wasn't around a computer much this weekend... reading this would've taken a long time - and gotten me scolded for being online when I should've been doing 'other' things!

You done good Kenny!  Mercy killings never completely feel 'right' but they are the right thing to do.
