It's a dirty job but somebody's got to do it.

I can honestly say I would walk away from that buck on day 1 or 2

" 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

There is no way I would pass on that buck, searching for a better one, unless I was doing some sort of late season special hunt...and even then...

Hes a solid 155 deer.  He is short 5 inches a side on his mains. Add eyeguards, a nice 170.   I have a wall full of them.  I love them.

Every day of general season I'd kill him. Late permit, maybe last day. He needs to grow some, but he is pretty. I'm a sucker for mule deer in their winter coat, standing in the snow.

That smokes anything I have tagged so far, yet does do not have antlers.

Me too, but I'm trying to be more selective. I'll let you guys know how that turns out.

Actually it appeared to be several walls...... :chuckle:Yep, he'd be hitting the ground general season for sure here in Washington.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

There's a reason they call it hunting, not killing.

You'd pass on that buck?   :o

Maybe I'm just not a good hunter, but I've never seen a buck like that in Washington (I'm a blackie hunter, though).  I'd pull the trigger in a second!

I can't believe 3 people would pass on this buck.  I have only seen one bigger, but it was during elk season.  Another state not a chance, unless its like Arkansas where you can get like 5 tags.

AMAZING!!!!!  but I would try to pass it and look for Wider than 28" to 33"   :rolleyes:  Trust me My good frined Bow kill 33" last year   :) anyway two years ago Non-Topical Mule I missed on my Deer Permit  :bash:... Possible 28" with 12 by 9 and two drops  :'(   I have seen Many wider than 19 to 24" but I still want Anther to be wider than the Ear.  ;)  Give it more time before you decide to Pull Trigger.

I am more like to have Wall with one of Most Beauitful Animals HARDLY find them in Wood.
