Default Biggest Buck you past

What is the biggest buck you have let walk that was within range and you had a good shot at. Mine was a low 150's 10pt next was a 147 3/8 8pt I found both sets of sheds and I guessed his spread at 18 in to come up with this measurement

Through out years since I was 16 years old (1990) I've probably let at least 10 125" to 130" bucks pass. One buck that Isn't Included In that group was a 135" or so 10 point that I thought was an 8 point so my bow never came off of the hook. When he came by broadside at 12 yards that's when I noticed his 4" end forks weren't G3''s, they were G4's![:@] I know, I'm an Idiot! My bow should always be In my hand when I see a decent buck coming. Lesson learned, I was young and dumb and It was my 1st year letting small bucks go.

Otherwise I haven't let any real big guys by like some on here have already this year. I hope to one day get to that point, that will mean I'm doing something right.

Wow
No offence, but you have to be nuts to pass 150" bucks - regardless of where you live/hunt. I agree with Greg H...what's it gonna take for you? Holding out for Booners only?


Personally the biggest I've ever passed was about 90"....but a big buck where I am is 110"+


It kills me to hear about you guys passing deer that I would give an arm & leg to even see. You are blessed to be in those areas.

The biggestdeer I have had a shot at, that I didn't take was what I figured to be about a 135" 3 1/2 year old buck.This happened this year in the second week of October, It was tough for me too b/c he would be my best deer to date....After looking at the card's from the cam's I am glad I let him walk....
