I've been scouting quite a bit east of Cache Valley. We've got a special place where we've had quite a bit of success. Sorry, 'tis top secret. 8)
There's quite a few bucks around - more than I've seen in a few years, but I've yet to see anything very big. There's a few nice ones I've seen (20"+ 4 points), but I'm now like you, unless it's going on the wall, I don't shoot. I've shot probably 15 deer in my life, so it's not so big a deal any more.
When I was 14, on my very first hunt, I shot a 34" monster Muley buck. It was the 2nd biggest deer shot in Idaho that year. Since growing up and realizing how significant this was, I'm a bit more particular about what I shoot at. I just like getting away from everything and enjoying nature, plus there's always a chance that monster buck might cross your path.
