You made the rite call, it's better the bull walked than running the risk of burning a bridge with a friend and access to ground to hunt. When I was a kid and found myself in such situations my dad would have me empty my rifle and shoot it with an empty chamber (dry fire). "Click, you're dead" has been said to a lot of animals over the years.

Wow, it's nice to actually hear of someone else that's an ethical hunter. Ran into several that were NOT, this last weekend on the east side. Guys breaking locks off of gates and walking through clearcuts that I was visibly watching and driving their vehicles through our camp behind locked gates. So it's very refreshing that there are still some ethical hunters out there. Thank you. I'm sure it was a HARD fought decision, but you did the right thing totally, and not that what anyone else may think. Right, wrong or indifferent. Just my 2 cents.
