I was just having some fun.My "personal opinion" is that if it didn't meet your criteria on the first day or early on than it shouldn't later in the season or on the last day.I believe that if it has survived in to the late part of the season it is all that much more likely that it will be around next year and be that much of a better buck.
There are some that believe their testicles shrink if they go a season without killing a buck!

As I said you know your a man when you don't care what Billy Bob thinks if you don't kill a buck!
