Ok guys question for you all. Shoot it, or let it go? Here is my delima: I hunt mostly public land...and pass up a lot of smaller deer. I'd like to think I am letting them grow up to be something bigger...but this may not be the case.My brother thinks I am nuts, and that I should not pass any deer up. He says its public land, and if you don't shot it, the next guy will. Plus...the hunting clubs run dogs for deer in my area [:@]and usually end up shooting most of what I pass up during bow season...from buttons, to spikes, to 6 -pointers on up. [:@][:@]So maybe he has a point...
I know I am going to keep on passing them up. (I do shoot one for meat..a doe preferably, but does are getting scarce in my area...if the big one is a no show.) Just wanted some input...
You keep passing them up and stand up for what is right and for what you believe in. You are among the few that have the foresight and vision for sound deer hunting practices.
