Ok, it's day one of the Peaches Ridge Muzzy season and this guy comes barging in on you.

What do you do?

Drop the hammer.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is who you actually are while your reputation is merely who others think you are.

Pass on day one. He's young and not that big.

I agree for the most part unless I had tons of scouting in and cameras that weren't showing much if anything bigger. He is a decent young bull but it would be tough to pull the trigger the first morning.

I would probably take him. I ended up with a spike on the last day of the season with the same permit, in 2005 I believe it was.

Hey Bobcat, how many bulls did you pass on during your hunt?

I didn't pass up any. We just never got within muzzleloader range of any bulls.

This is the bigest bull to show so far. I swapped cards yesterday and found that the batteries had died on August 11th. There were 2300 pictures, and 3/4 of them were at night. I have a feeling that the flash bured up the batteries.

I was bummed that I didnt have pics from the last couple of weeks. I'm hoping that more salty bull will appear.

But I'll have to be honest, this bull steps out on day one, Bang! Whe would make a dandy first elk.
