Week 9 | A Change In Schedule Didn’t Stop The Bucks

As the Thanksgiving rush walked out the door two Thursdays ago, I told Justin Bailey “That was exhausting”. To score upwards of 15 deer in less than three hours, you have to really hustle. Coming up on this week, I was expecting a few and honestly, I figured they’d be on the average side of things.

But a few days before the dedicated scoring night, my youngest daughter came to me and said, “Yo dad, I have a choir thing Thursday night”. And that was it. No time. No location. Just that.

After getting with the school on when the recital was and where, I got with K&M and we decided to change the night we scored deer instead of cancelling. We did just that and the big deer still came in to be entered. We had two deer shake up the leader board once again
