I’ve got a problem- wife’s stand(non saddle)

Man I live in the wrong state. Given that I've never seen a deer like any of these in the woods, and I've only seen a grand total of 4 bucks while hunting in the 6+ years I've tried... I'd be hunting these day 1 & shooting the first one I see. But I guess I'm not a good source of advice given my situation and experience.
It is on our land, and we have really tried to manage the herd. Can’t control my hillbilly neighbors, but selective harvest has been working. All my doe harvests come off public. I do feel fortunate to have the opportunity to hunt these deer for sure
 
My rule kids and women get to fill tags first. I get more enjoyment out of watching someone else have success.
I’m not that nice! My son is 27 and daughter 23. They can fend for them selves. My son killed a nice 8 last year off this stand using my rifle, what did I get... one roast!!! LOL
 
“Oh my laws laws laws, there are so many bucks to shoot between me and my wife that I just don’t know what to do about it! Ay, pobrecitos, que lástima...” lol :p
In all seriousness, just ask @fbwguy Junior for his opinion on the matter. This is one of those situations where you think with your trousers and not your brain. Can’t wait for the “She got ‘im!” post though!
 
I’d go try for the monster 6 in the third picture and leave the rest to her and I’d only shoot that buck. Make her a deal. You get that buck she gets the rest. Win win

You might be on something there. He's a nice mature 6 and i think I've got him patterned pretty good. I think POINT greed has got me, not cool

You did buy the feeder and fill it for her right. Maybe put up the box stand too. Just trying to help you justify the punishment that may or may not ensue.

True, I bought the feeder, and the corn! And yes it was my stand for years, I gave it to her when I discovered saddles
