No I wouldn' t. Biggest buck I' ve ever seen in the woods...35yds...wide open...he was very nervous. I could have taken the shot...and maybe I' d have gotten him. But based on his body language, I let him walk. It was tough, but I' d do it again. I don' t know for sure how big he was, but he was definitely 130" + and where I am, that' s a heck of a buck with a bow.
Wolfen you are right...losing any deer sucks, I could imagine how it would feel losing a monster. Heck I still feel the pain of not getting a shot at some of the deer I' ve seen.
Wimp...you are right my friend, good choice of words.
