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

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

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.

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

I'd kill him, but then the skull plate would be toast. :)
May I always be the kind of person my dog thinks I am.

Shoot it. Muzzleloader bullet weights are heavier and wouldn't have any problem with "logging the grass" that's in front of the deer.
I couldn't care less about what anybody says..............

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