What would you do??? Hunt ideas
« on: October 16, 2013, 10:22:21 AM »
So saturday for the opener I had a 40 yard shot at the big buck I have been watching for two months!!! I hit a branch in the dark of the morning light!  Do I still go after this buck after he has been shot at?? Im certain I know the hole he is in and probably laying down hiding. Or just find a legal buck in another area? 

I really want a deer. But this buck is a wall hanger and its driving me nuts!!!

You know what to do, Kurt.  :hunter:

I don't understand why you wouldn't go after him. What's the worst that could happen?

You missed your chance.  Tell someone else where he is and let them have him.  Jk of course.  I'd be back after him.

If you're afraid of him, RT, go after another, safer animal. We won't taunt you too badly.  :chuckle:

Keep trying would be my outlook. Who knows might even stumble on a bigger buck or at the least a legal buck in the process. But heck RT your a way more experienced guy than me I'm sure your going to do what your going to do  :) Good luck to you, you certainly have karma on your side this year  :tup:

RT...let me help you change your focus so you can see the silliness of this question. 

I have been making eye contact with this hot girl at the gym for the past two months, I finally got the chance to ask her out, but the power went out right as i asked her and we were rushed to leave the area. Any ways just wondering if I should go back to the gym and ask her out again.....she really looks like a keeper?

Same advice as I would give RT. Set up some cams. Stalk her for a while. When she starts getting really comfortable again, let her have it.  :yike:
