Any news on the Gov deer opener?

[Perch Jerker]

Myself and two other guys headed up to our camp (20mi NE of Bemidji) and stopped at the Sawmill in Grand Rapids for dinner & drinks Fri PM. When we pulled up there were 5 squad cars and banners everywhere proclaiming it to be HQ for the 2004 Govener deer opener. We never did see 'the man' but was wondering if anyone heard any reports from his camp.

In yesterdays paper it said that he shot a small buck on opening morning. I think it said the paper said that it was a fork horn, but I'm not positive.

He shot a small buck Sat morning and then was leaving to run the NYC marathon.

And I thought dragging deer out of the woods was enough of a work out.

I can't get the pic posted so I put the link to the gov's web site I hope its OK with the moderators

I just took about a total of 3 minutes and e-mailed the Governor on what a great thing he is doing by promoting hunting and the natural resources. I'm sure he's getting some **** from those other groups, so I figured he might want to hear some positive news from hunters like us. I'm telling ya, if you can type something in on this forum, you can send a positive message to him and it takes so little time. This is not to be a political jab, (as I vote both sides,) but here we have a man who says he hunts and actually goes out and does it! He needs to hear from some hunting supporters!

Good for you Bronco! Should be a lot more of us following your lead.

Change your name again there John?

I would consider a yearling to be "bambi". Like the one I shot. A forkhorn sounds nice to me.

My grandpa shot a "bambi" it wayed 105 pounds so there not as small as they sound a Bambi is a deer with spots anything else is fair game in my book
