I'm looking for him this year Sky

[Skyvalhunter]

Phool I know you are going to get the big one this year!! I am thinking 170-180 buck.

[huntnphool]

For those that passed on the last pic, does this change your mind at all?

[nwhunter]

I'd shoot that big 2 and 3 point before a mediocre 4 point to get them out of the gene pool besides I kind of have a likeing for monster two points. The buck with the trash would get me thinking hard though. Great pics thanks for sharing and hope we can share some when we get back with  some good bucks on the ground.nwhunter

i would say take a animal that you would be proud of and be happy

[antlerbolic_bearoids]

I would shoot him, and that big 3.  I might pass on the first day.....i dunno though we will see

[Pathfinder101]

Shoot this guy or pass?

Shoot.  No hesitation there.  Dead deer.

[Gobble]

I'd  have to say "Bang" on that last one Phool

Like everyone is saying. There are a ton of 20-22 inch four points running around over there. If you put in some time and effort you should be able to find a 150+ buck. I shot my buck the first day I was there and I was happy with him. Even after we tagged out (In the first day and a half) we still saw a ton of decent bucks, and we weren't hunting to hard since we were just hunting for does.

Leavin' tomorrow...

THanks for all the input on this thread.  Right now, based on all the input, I am going to try to hold out for a 24" buck until the last couple of days.  I looked on weather.com and it looks like it's gonna be in the 40's with no snow where we are going all week 

[carpsniperg2]

gl to you

[Bob33]

Don't pass up in the first 30 minutes what you'd shoot in the last 30 minutes.

[Pathfinder101]

Don't pass up in the first 30 minutes what you'd shoot in the last 30 minutes.

Should I have that printed on the inside of my scope?
