No, I would not. Good for you sacring him off. The guy reminds me of my father-in-law. We pulled up to our spot one day and it was in someone's backyard. As soon as we pulled in, a young buck showed up and just looked at us. My father-in-law was beside himself and told my husband to hurry and try to get his bow. I was like, are you kidding me? I got out of the car and the buck ran off and I thought my father-in-law was going to kill me. Now I know there were no regulations in question here, but there are ethics. I want to be in my stand and have one come close enough for a shot with my bow and i feel like I accomplished something and am a true hunter. He wanted to kill that so we could go home!!! I honestly wish I NEVER hunted with him, he ruined more than a few hunts. Needless to say, we do not hunt with him anymore.
Sorry for getting off track. I think you did the right thing
