I have taken seven, but have only entered five of them into the book.

Default doesn't matter to me.

It doesn't matter to me if I have or haven't take one. I don't eat the antlers.
But I said none as I have never measured any.

Zero-zilch-nada. I CHOOSE not to shoot any trophy class animals. I feel that judging an animal.................. aaahhhhhhh..... screw it. I just plain suck.

Hopefully have my first book deer this fall. Got a sweet stand with my name on it.

2 Mules. One in at 165 gross, net 149. Another at a hair better than 145. One missed P&Y w/t no time to range, estimated short and gave him a haircut.... Bears handed me my azz again, maybe a P&Y next year.

one whitetail and 3 muley's...

oh, does this mean i should have entered them to post?...

my apologies if so, all my muleys gross mid 160's and net worst case 10" less and my whitetail gross's 143 and forget its net but it would be enough...

i guess i'll call mine pope 'class' then?

if i get a booner i'll put it in the book......promise

elk scores just shy of 290. Do not chase deer with a bow so nothing there. Moose have all been the tender eating size of small bulls so nothing there to report. No interest in hunting bears.

I am on page with Stinky, Ive killed P&Y animals, but I only "officially" entered my first. I enter them in the Alberta book though, same minimum as P&Y, and they have to be scored after 60 days, etc... Same rules, fair chase afidavit, etc as P&Y.
