Here's one I added a little color to. I harvested this buck while hunting with my bud that is a Army Ranger.

I have a hard time getting them all into my rather small trophy room.

 
So don't wait until you retire to go hunting and fishing.  Don't even wait for your annual vacation.  Go at every opportunity.  Things that appear urgent at the moment may, in the long run, turn out to be far less so.
