I'd wait too but what are the odds that someone else will have a shot at him or he doesn't come in then....you willing to eat your tag? I assume you are looking at the quality of bucks you're hunting.

" 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

Depends how much time you will have for him in Nov.  I'd like to think that I could hold out...but.... :dunno:

I wouldn't shoot anything but the hog. My judgement is a touch skewed this year though. Said I would buy the multi deer one time and I would kill a buck of a lifetime. So far I've held up to my standards. ;)

I'd take the one that shows up in front of you first.  I like the trash on the wide buck, but wouldn't hold out just for him.

It's reasonably doubtful that he'll be tagged by anyone else, this is in a unit open for a long late archery season so I'm long on time to hunt him

I haven't checked the camera since August, I am trying to steer clear of him for awhile.  I might sit in that stand later in the month if it cools off but otherwise, not until November.

It's an area that really gets the worst of the hot sun so there is no point trying to hunt it right now.
