I've passed on many whitetail cause I wasn't ready to be done hunting yet and wanted to still have a tag in my pocket.

But a moose would be a different story probably. It would be hard to pass a good moose because it was "too easy" although this guy didn't pass- he certainly seemed to regret it.

My antelope hunt was somewhat similar this year. After several years of applying, researching, calling and talking to people, studying maps, etc..... when it came down to it- it was pretty easy. Four of us got our bucks that first day. Even though we mostly did it from our feet, not road hunting like allot of people do.

I don't regret that the hunt was "easy" but I also wouldn't have minded having to work a little harder for it. And next time I go I'll be looking for a better, bigger buck.
