Post by: jackelope on August 28, 2010, 09:02:55 AM: Too far and he's moving...pass for me.

Title: Re: and......
Post by: alecvg on August 28, 2010, 02:44:04 PM: I would take the shot, I have made a very similar shot in the past at farther distance.

Post by: canyelk48 on August 28, 2010, 03:22:11 PM: I'd pass; let the young buck grow and look for him next season.

Post by: banannaclip on August 28, 2010, 07:42:15 PM: if he stops and i have a good rest, not taking a chance on hurting him looks like he is moving pretty good by the time i see 3 .

Post by: Thenewguy on August 28, 2010, 09:07:44 PM: pass archery..... tough to say with rifle. Depends on scope or open sites. No brainer with open sites imo

Post by: adam.WI on August 28, 2010, 11:14:01 PM: Bow-whistle/grunt if he stops that is a fine shot.

I was thinking he's an older buck :dunno:

What would some of you more seasoned guys say??

Post by: Michelle_Nelson on August 29, 2010, 12:55:45 AM: Daing look how white that guy is in the face. That ould be a really nice cape.
Title: Re: and......
Post by: boneaddict on August 29, 2010, 06:39:20 AM: He does have a pretty cape doesn't he Michelle. Lots of contrast. I also love that "style" or coloring. I'm thinking in my head he was a 4 point or at least a 4x3. I'll have to see if I have any other angles on him. I am thinking he was crabbed in the front and his points were kinda sideways. He wasn't exactly standing there to be admired. As for his maturity, he's about a 3 year old, could go 4. Would love to see him in year 5 or 6 when he got some more mass.

Yup, that's what I was thinking too. He's a nice enough looking buck now, but just think what he might look like in a year or two!

Post by: saylean on August 29, 2010, 01:10:56 PM: If I can make out legal antlers with an ethical shot, the deer is going down. Especially at that distance.
