I Hope you make captain jack walk the plank! Nice read and photos, look forward to watching this one unfold.
I hope it all pans out for you brother, I truly do! You've put in a lot of time and effort on that farm this year with the food plots, and the extra corn crop can't hurt your odds either! I also think you've got a honey hole in that dairy farm if you can figure out how to work around the other hunters!
Adam's statement above is why I'm not running trail cameras anymore this year, and why I'm going back to the basics. Since I started running cameras, I have passed on deer I probably would have shot, because I knew there were certain deer out there. This year, with the minimal amount of time I have to hunt, I don't want to know what is out there. I plan on shooting the first good deer that gives me a shot. I don't want the pressure of chasing ghosts, and the disappointment of not succeeding. I want to get back to the basics and just enjoy being out in the woods, and learn again how to hunt without the aid of a camera.

Great post Greg and even better perspective! You too Adam!
Jesse, I'm looking forward to you killing that old deer! I think waiting till the time is right is the smartest move you could make. You can't kill them when they aren't on their feet, they usually aren't on their feet until NOW! Good luck!
