Jeff cancelled all "bets" regardless of outcome of said bets. He came to a new understanding and appreciation and respect for bowhunting and betting isn't part of it. I'll let him explain.

No problem, Arrow. Rb's right, though.....I found out more about ME this year than I kinda wanted to. I was looking at this ALL WRONG.

If I had a bet with you and you want to "call".....I'm "in" for whatever it was. I notified everyone I could remember having a bet with via PM and attempted to bow out, EARLY on, though.

I've killed several does, this year, in attempt at mgmt. and nothing else (mgmt. of does....I've also taken two bucks). I won't ever attempt to kill that many, again. With a little over a week left in my season....the mgmt. goal of 8 doe sout fo the herd, here, is almost met. Frank (Brknarrow) helped out with one....and one more needs to be taken. If that occurs (or even if it doesn't), I'll feel good about the year, here.

I'll never make another "bet" on deer hunting.........where it puts a bad light on what WE do. I aoplogize for the way I entered this season.

Good luck to all in your late seasons.

RESPECT given! Growing pains hurt like hell sometimes, but they are most necessary.

Is it still considered a "bet" if you already know the outcome??
