Post by: NWBREW on August 20, 2011, 04:16:29 PM: 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.

Post by: trophyhunt on August 28, 2011, 10:21:51 AM: 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

Post by: robb92 on August 28, 2011, 08:07:26 PM: Take the shot, then the fun begins!
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: Skillet 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??

Post by: Skillet on September 06, 2011, 02:18:00 PM: Went back and looked close - not going to take that offhand shot.
Tag soup for me...

Post by: PolarBear on September 06, 2011, 02:28:37 PM: Pass. Don't like the shot, don't like the buck.
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: TopOfTheFoodChain 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.
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: Dan-o 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......
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: 6x6in6 on September 06, 2011, 03:46:35 PM: Pass.
Could be a doe standing broadside, head down and munching right in front him.

Post by: Curly on September 06, 2011, 03:57:27 PM: I'd kill him, but then the skull plate would be toast. :)

Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: Nilehunter on September 07, 2011, 07:39:53 PM: I would sneak in and jig em with my knife saving the lead for elk season... :chuckle:

Okay, Okay I would think about taking the shot.
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: shorthair-on-point on September 15, 2011, 11:53:19 AM: Pass, hope he steps out where I can get a better look/shot.
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: Killercolin on September 15, 2011, 05:55:44 PM: give him another 15 yrds to make if more fair for him. ;)

Post by: CAMPMEAT 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.
Title: Re: call the shot...Muzzelloader
Post by: Lowedog on September 15, 2011, 06:26:37 PM: Not a good shot. I would pass and hope for a better opportunity.
