I wonder if those antlers will grow differently next year. Some say odd growth like that stems from an injury. I shot a deer that would have scored close to 130 as a 6 pointer. One side was an impressively wide 3 points and the other was just one big hook which was shorter. There was some sort of puss at the base of the antler. No idea what caused this odd growth. Infection probably. He seemed plenty active as I saw him two days in a row. I'd only seen his good side at the shot and thought he was a different deer than the one I saw the day before. That was back when i was shooting a TC Hawken.
Jesus replaces the old covenant and speaks to the believer the moral code of God by His Spirit directly to the heart. He is the eternal, everlasting revelation of God to mankind. In Him is both the knowledge of righteousness and the power to live right.

Cold this morning. 25 when I checked. Saw 7 does and fawns. Had a button well in range but gave him pass. Mom got with in 30. Moved my climber to a different tree. I will be right in middle of where most have been traveling. Son didn’t see anything. Only a handful of shots this morning. We will be back out this evening

Good luck.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Saw a good buck yesterday morning. He was locked down with a doe. Stayed in a thicket about 75 yards away. Would see glimpses of them for about a hour. Snuck out hoping they would bed down and be close for evening hunt. Got back in yesterday afternoon. Had a good feeling about the evening. I didn’t see anything. It was getting dark. Still had 10 minutes of legal shooting time but it was cloudy and light was disappearing. I heard my son shoot. I text him. He said he thought it was a 7 or 8. And it dropped in its tracks. So I told him to hang out I’d be there. I got there and it ended up growing haha. It was a 10. His best to date and first on his own.

Couple shots from stand. Heart was still warm when it hit the pan last night.
