Big bucks are running, but this one isn't anymore

Here's a shot of 13-year-old Matthew Bower with a heavy 10-pointer he killed in Craig County.
I've gotten quite a few trophy shots the past few days, and this is one of the best not only because the deer is awesome, but because Matthew's expression is even better.
From what I'm hearing, things are picking back up out there after the lull we saw around the middle of the month. I've had a lot of people report seeing bucks chasing does the past few days. I saw some of it myself Friday evening when a nice six-pointer came trotting up to the ground blind I was in, spooked when he got downwind, then immediately forgot about the human danger and started chasing a doe again a minute later.
I'm not sure when I'll get back out, but I'd like to find a way to hunt Wednesday afternoon. The weather looks great.
I've got a bunch of deer pictures to post so I'll try to get them up over the next couple of days.
