RE: How many have you passed, so far ?
 

Our season doesn't begin unti October 1st. I didn't pass any up last year, but they sure passed me up! :D

Only deer I've had in bow range was a spike buck...with about 8" MB's. Never touched the bow, of course.....but he ate honeysuckles at 9 yds for about a minute.

Passed? No interest. He was a nice body-sized buck, though....and he'll make someone happy one day.

Don't you carry a camera? Pictures of stuff like that are cool ,& handy on those pick your shot threads.

Saturday I had in bow Range 9 diferent bucks one being very respectable but I was waiting on the one I took. Last night I had a 6, 4, and a spike eat under for an hour actually had to run them off to get down at 8:30.

Good call, Jim. The reason I didn't take photos.....is it was 7:20PM....and this was the first deer I'd seen in 8 hours on stand. Since the bucks are still traveling in groups.....I was afraid I'd be snapping photos when the big boys came behind him. Had he not stopped to eat.....I'd have had about 2 seconds to decide whether to shoot, or not. So I didn't want to be shooting pictures if his dad and uncles were behind him.

It was really thick where I was. Here....in some places.....I'll have ample opportunity for photos....and I'll be posting many.

I've had 1 4x4 in the velvet early at 20 yards, 1 nice 4x4 at 40 yards so far for bucks. 1 bull elk, spike at 3 yards off the ground I passed on too. Had over 20 cow elk within 10-40 yards so far. 1 bull moose at 10 yards for 3-4 minutes.. but no permit, but it was a cool encounter.

Passed on 2 small bucks and a few does. I've seen a good number of bucks but nothing close or worth shooting.
