Mobohuntr, I took the same attitude as you this year. Previous years I did the same as you as well. It's hard for me to let any deer pass.I even let a medium to large 8 point pass by me with in 15 yards not once but 3, I say 3 times. The consulation I got from letting him pass was the fact that I video taped him. Knowing I could have taken a shot was some relief. I let some 6's go, due toantler restrictions,and one 7 along with numerous fork horns, spikes and even some does. Once again with them on video I felt better. I stayed in the woods longer and hunted more days than I usually do. It was quite an experience for me. Soooo naturally I did not kill a buck or any deer with my bow this season. This was the first season I have ever been so selective. Good luck next year and in the future.
