Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: Watimberghost on August 21, 2012, 04:20:50 PM: I guess there are some people out there who would pass on a buck like this, I am not one of those people. Even if I had seen a bigger buck in my time scouting I would knock him down without a blink or a regret. Mature bucks are what Im after during the high hunt. This buck is mature. Good luck man
Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: Kowsrule30 on August 21, 2012, 08:40:46 PM: He's close to 20-21" wide with good forks and tine length.... Your choice..... I know what I'd do.....
Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: hoytem on August 21, 2012, 09:10:48 PM: I know they say there's no such thing as a stupid question but....... come on dude, seriously? ;)
Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: h2ofowlr on August 21, 2012, 09:35:06 PM: You can't eat the rack. As long as it is legal, I shoot it. Then on to duck hunting.

Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: D-Rock425 on August 23, 2012, 09:11:25 AM: I really dont think he was asking if it was a shooter. I think it was kinda a joke when he askef if it was a shooter or not.
Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: h20hunter on August 23, 2012, 09:14:41 AM: That was my impression.
Title: Re: Is this a shooter come high buck?
Post by: luvmystang67 on August 23, 2012, 09:24:03 AM: If I had a time machine I would've made it legal deer season. Not a doubt in my mind. If knife season had been open I would've tried that...

Anybody who says they would've passed on that deer, I'd like to hunt with, so I could see if they live what they preach (cause I doubt they do).

Hopefully this one is on the menu come deer season, as it is plenty for me.

Post by: D-Rock425 on August 23, 2012, 10:29:42 AM: I still think he's a last day buck for me.

That's cause it'd take you until the last day to get back up there.

You can go with me anytime you want. :-). 9 days in September, 17 in October, and 14 days in November.

You'll find more than a couple guys on here that I know would walk away from that buck. I'm not one of them at this point in my mule deer hunting career but there are others....guaranteed.
I shoot.

Post by: threedwizard on August 25, 2012, 10:27:35 AM: I feel the trophy is in the eye of the beholder. That's the beauty of America, we can all state our opinion. I have bigger bucks I've taken, but I think he's a nice wall buck and good representation of a mule deer. Tall and decent forks, not real wide, but would be nice in someone's house.......
