Legal shooting time???
 
Here in MN legal shooting starts 30 minutes before sunrise (6:59am tomorrow) the question is.... If you have a nice shooter buck in front of you at 6:20am and there is enough light to make a good shot. 9 minutes before you can legally shoot. Let him walk or take the shot?????

thats a hard decision, if it was me and ther was enough light i would have to take him.

Wait till legal shooting time, it is the right thing to do IMO. And he hopefully he won't go to far during the 9 minutes.

sunrise is 6:51am tomorrow in Minnesota and likely some other states as well according to the MN DNR regs booklet.

Thats a tough one to answer, im kind of a guy who sticks to the books so I would probably wait the 9 min. Even though it would be pure torture. Just my opinion though. Good Luck!

I'll come clean.

I don't look at sunrise/sunset predictions. I shoot if I have sufficient light to do so, ethically.

That's what I do.

your right red lion it is at 6:51doesn't change the question though you would still be a 1 minute b4 legal shooting time?

6:20 is 39 minutes before sunrise at 6:59..and thats way early!




And oddly enough I agree with GMMAT ! ;)[:-]

GMMAT I'm with you on this one I never look at the times either, but I was intrested to see how many people would actually wait on him. If there is enough light I would take the shot.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 10:37 PM.
