Would you try to avoid it??
Would you or do you try to avoid shooting button heads?? I try to avoid it, but I have done it. Nothing wrong with it, but I would like to see what they may become.

RE: Would you try to avoid it??
I never shoot a button buck unless I truly mess up and I cannot tell you the last one I ever shot but I know it was way back in the early 90's and that was on a farm where the farmer asked us to do some serious thinning.

I shot one....but I try to avoid it.
 This was a piebald BB fawn......and the rumor was he was threatening small children in the neighborhood. |
RE: Would you try to avoid it??
I shot one, it was my third deer with a bow. I don't mind shooting a doe fawn but I will make sure I glass everything very well that isn't a mature doe. I won't shoot unless I'm sure.

treboryerf that is a good point. Here in south east Va deer rarely make it to 3.5 yrs old b/c of the amount of dog hunting clubs. Most clubs shoot what is legal without checking the age of a deer before they shoot. Plus the bucks are often running full speed when shot. Hard to tell. I would like to see how big some of these deer would get if they did get to reach 4.5-5.5 yrs old. This is a 4 yr old according to the taxi,I shot 11 yrs ago, wonder what he could have been? He may had a few more years in him to grow, but I couldn't pass him. The 15 pt was alledgedly 7 yrs old according to the taxi, but I have my doubts.
