Not sure.. that is a beautiful deer.. he looks a bit young. you have to think what if there is a guy sitting over the hill from me? what would he do? This deer is one of those "borderline shooters".... I would be satisfied with a picture and let him go.

I would wait for him to turn a little more so his near front leg is completely out of the way...then I'd take him. I've practiced long and hard with my bow....I know I can make the shot count.
