RE: How many bucks do you see, every year?
I saw 3 bigger than him in IL last year....None in MS..
I typically see 2-3 deer bigger than that per year....
With a longbow I would kill him, compound, no....
I've killed 3 bigger and passed a dozen or so that size and up...

RE: How many bucks do you see, every year?
Last year I saw one spike the day after the season closed. I didn't bow hunt as much as usual but I did go. I hunted the muzzleloader season and the firearms season. No bucks. This year I've driven back roads night after night. I've seen 5. 2 of the big ones I've seen multiple times..... and so has everyone else.[&:]

How many bucks do you see, from stand -last year, bigger than this one?-16 according to my log
How many have you seen, on average, every year......bigger than this one?- 15-20 I guess(last year was my first for my log)
Would this make a difference in whether or not you would take this buck, or not (If you hunted in such an area)?-Not in that position so its hard to say. I'd prolly shoot him if he wasthe best buck around.
For S's and G's.....how many bucks have you taken (with your bow) bigger than this one (score-wise).-8 (all of them)

RE: How many bucks do you see, every year?
I see 8-10 bucks bigger than this one on average each year when I hunt Illlinois and usually 4-5 bucks bigger than this in GA!
I have shot 14 bucks bigger than this one, only two of those were with a bow.
Where I hunt, we are not allowed to shoot a deer this young and immature. It would be frowned upon unless it's a kids first deer or something like that!

I'm not saying I WOULD shoot him.....but I might....and if I did....I'd be proud of him (or I wouldn't shoot).
