Great trophy!  You owe your wife a night on the town!  You'll always remember that first deer, and if you have another tag, good luck chasing a buck.

I have two more tags which are good for a doe or buck during the regular archery and/or firearm deer seasons.

Actually, two nights before I took my doe, I had a nice 8-point come by the same spot.  Even though he wasn't legal, I drew on him to see if he would catch me, but of course he didn't.  He looked like a 3D taget giving me a perfect broadside shot.  I had never had a buck within bow range, and he shows up when I can only take a doe  :banghead:  .  I'm hoping he's still around on October 1st.

thats very cool,,, you need to have someone draw some kind of a period correct scrimshaw on birchbark or leather or a drawing on period correct paper of that picture and then frame it in a medievil style -- or you know what I mean.
