If you want to hold out for bigger bucks then good for you, but i dont think anybody has the right to make other people hold out. I shot the first thing that walked under my stand this year, and it happened to be a 6 pointer. If it would have been a button buck i wouldnt have known for one thing until it was down, but the only regret i would have had was that a bigger one didnt walk in earlier. In the area where we hunt usually there are a lot of deer, but the last two years it was slow, i was the only one that even got a shot at one. my brothere just got a quick look before it ran off. If you dont go by its brown its down, you will be hungary. From my experience it is nearly impossible to tell a button buck from anything else unless you have a lot of time to look at it, or if it is with another deer. It will most likely not be with another deer because if it is near the rut the mother will have kicked it out. Carpmaster you must have some AWSOME eyes if you think button bucks are easy to distinguish. Me, i have less then perfact eyesight, and i hunt in thicker woods, it is nearly impossible to impossible to tell the differance between a button buck and a doe fawn or a less then mature doe.
