Even though I am sure you could punch threw that small grass with a heavy muzzle loader bullet. I would still have to pass myself.

I would wait. I could not take that shot with a muzzleloader....I just couldn't, I would have to wait and HOPE for a better opportunity.

With my ML set up I'd take that shot on the 1st day.....

How far?

I voted for not big enough. If it was a permit hunt, I'm letting him walk. Over the counter tag I still might let him walk but if I did decide to shoot and was within 40 yards I'd let him have it just below his nose.

45 yards

Take the shot, then the fun begins!

Skillet · « **Reply #14 on:** September 06, 2011, 02:14:22 PM »

45 yards... Definitely an OTC shooter with a ML for me. Pass on the shot until a better opportunity comes. He's got me in his sights as well, though... a better opportunity might not come. My 460 gr can get there, I'm pretty sure... 45 yards is outer edge of my off-hand shooting into a 2 inch circle... he might get a third nostril out of the deal depending on if we're talking 8 am or fading light on last day??

Skillet · « **Reply #15 on:** September 06, 2011, 02:18:00 PM »

Went back and looked close - not going to take that offhand shot.
Tag soup for me...

PolarBear · « **Reply #16 on:** September 06, 2011, 02:28:37 PM »

Pass. Don't like the shot, don't like the buck.

TopOfTheFoodChain · « **Reply #17 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:07:15 PM »

Pass, based on photo alone. Cannot tell how thick the grass/brush is below him. Could be a doe's head in the dark in front, never know. I would take it if I could see more hair clearly.

Dan-o · « **Reply #18 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:31:11 PM »

Dropping him right where he stands.... even if it's 5 minutes into legal shooting on opening morning.

I mean seriously people......

6x6in6 · « **Reply #19 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:46:35 PM »

Pass.
Could be a doe standing broadside, head down and munching right in front him.

Curly · « **Reply #20 on:** September 06, 2011, 03:57:27 PM »

I'd kill him, but then the skull plate would be toast.

after the smoke clears, i'll go retrieve my buck

Nilehunter · « **Reply #23 on:** September 07, 2011, 07:39:53 PM »

I would sneak in and jig em with my knife saving the lead for elk season...

Okay, Okay I would think about taking the shot.

shorthair-on-point · « **Reply #24 on:** September 15, 2011, 11:53:19 AM »

Pass, hope he steps out where I can get a better look/shot.

Killercolin · « **Reply #25 on:** September 15, 2011, 05:55:44 PM »

give him another 15 yrds to make if more fair for him.

CAMPMEAT · « **Reply #27 on:** September 15, 2011, 06:20:56 PM »

Shoot it. Muzzleloader bullet weights are heavier and wouldn't have any problem with "logging the grass" that's in front of the deer.

Lowedog · « **Reply #28 on:** September 15, 2011, 06:26:37 PM »

Not a good shot. I would pass and hope for a better opportunity.
