General season Washington, I'd convert either one to rectangular white freezer paper packages.  Out of state, they'd walk.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

I wouldn't be able to get a round in the chamber fast enough.

I'm not all about the antlers. If I come across a monster,thats great. if I come across either of those,thats great also.

The arrow couldn't leave the string fast enough on the first one, the second one would probably have a little more time before the arrow flew just in case there was a bigger one behind him.

It would be hard but I think I would pass on the first one. Looks like he could grow a little bit more. The second I would not even have to think about it. Let em do some breedin.

OK.....another scenario for you guys.  If you were to have a late permit.  One of the Methow or Entiat units. Would you take him or not.  For those that haven't stated the other two, list all three.

Well since I passed on 2 bucks the same size as the 1st two yesterday in the Alta unit I guess my answer is no I wouldn't shoot them but it helps that I 've got the Multi tag in my pocket. On the 3rd pic it depends on the time frame. Early in the hunt I wouldn't kill it it's two spindly for me I like more girth.The pic could be deceiving though. But at crunch time different story.  :hunter:

he has some decent forks but not much mass. Would also have to have a front view to see the width.

 :yeah:

:fire.:

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
