Which buck?
« on: September 08, 2013, 06:13:23 PM »
What would you do?  If you were reasonably confident you could kill the first buck in September in a few nights would you wait and hunt the second buck in November or just hunt the first one now?

Buck #1 is showing in daylight and #2 is nocturnal now.  :bash:

Decisions, decisions...  :rolleyes:

I'm having a genuinely hard time deciding.  :dunno:

**OOPS reverse the pictures...**

I say hunt #1 now. His character is just too cool to pass on at any time for me!


OOPS !!!! I didn't see your OOPS!

OK certainly wait! I was wondering on why the indecision. ? Can i recant my vote? Absentee ballot?

I posted the pics in the reverse order though.  I really want "Mr. Character" but he's super elusive now and the other buck is coming by very consistently in daylight.

I vote for the one with all the points on his bases, but I would shoot the other one in a heartbeat.

I definitely want the trashy one because he's so wide but I think I am not even going to that stand until November because he's such a crafty bugger.

Here's a picture that shows off his width.
