Worry about a few inches and the possibility of a state record Ssssh!!!! Come on If he's big enough you have to ask yourself if he might make the state book or not SHOOT HIM!@!!!!! That would probably be a buck of a lifetime for most and I certainly wouldn't pass it up....Who cares about the book and a few inches if he is in the 180+ range. Maybe if you pass him up and someone else gets him and he does make the book they will give you a copy of the book
