I've adopted too many bows that needed a good home.

It may be variances in dialect, but "burned a tag" seems like a disparagement.  Congratulations on a traditional deer kill.

Hey!  That young stuff is excellent eating bro.   :thumbsup:  

 When opportunity knocks, drop the string. Waiting for the monster buck is fine. But if your shot opportunities are few and far between like mine are, you don't pass on fresh venison over lack of horn size, or you end up eating track soup.

I told myself that I was going to hold out for the big non-typical that was around, but then I was getting run over by every newbie kid that has seen too many tv shows.  I shot a smaller 8 pointer instead and I am now wishing that I could go out and shoot a couple of yearling does.  No doe tags here this year.  Every meal from  a young deer is a celebration in a way.

Any backstrap is good backstrap in my book and those should be good and tender. Congrats!
