How many bucks do you see, from stand -last year, bigger than this one? Last year, I saw 32 confirmed bucks from stand. 10 would have been bigger than that one. Note: Not all of those deer were in range, or presented shot opportunities.
How many have you seen, on average, every year......bigger than this one? Last year was an anomaly, b/c I started hunting Ohio, where my buckquality spiked dramatically. On an average year, I'd see 4-5 deer from the stand definitively bigger than that one. Maybe50% would present a shot opportunity.
Would this make a difference in whether or not you would take this buck, or not (If you hunted in such an area)? Without a shadow of a doubt.
How many bucks have you taken (with your bow) bigger than this one (score-wise)? 8or 10. I have 8 that are definitely bigger, butI have a couple morethat are borderline.
