Not sure what the point of that Subject line is but I always think that phrase is funny when I hear it
My first pronghorn buck hunt is looming and I've been looking over lots of photos and studying the scoring sheets. Who doesn't love a high, wide 'n heavy buck? I sure do. That said, I wonder if Im the only one who says "yeah, that's a nice scoring buck, but kind of ugly.." I want to notch my tag on a good scoring buck but I've noticed that I like the aesthetic look of taller bucks than fatter ("massive") ones, and I like ones with the cutters pointed out as opposed to straight forward or inward. Don't like them overly curved or heart shaped. More I look them over the more I think they're a beautiful animal, and if I can get a decent one I might go for the shoulder mount; I'm getting tired of mostly euros on the wall. I guess its good I'm getting more particular about what I want and not going into it prepared to shoot the first buck I see in the illustrious Red Desert. Just some silly aesthetic thoughts I guess.
Have you ever intentionally passed on a good scoring animal, even one within your goal, because you didn't think he'd look good on the wall? Related comments about other big game also welcome.
