RE: Tag Soup or a Spiker???????
I think there's something we're overlooking. There's a LOT of people who would shoot the spike on day 1, 2, 3 ......of their season.
Nothing wrong with that, at all. It's like shooting a 110" buck on your last day of an oufitted hunt.....when you KNOW there's 150+" deer on the property. I wouldn't blame the guy who lets that smaller (relative;)) buck walk. I wouldn't blame the guy for taking him. No wrong answer, huh? |

The spike is going down whether it be the first 15 minutes or last 15 minutes of the season.

RE: Tag Soup or a Spiker???????
It happened to me this year. The big buck was 80 yards away. The spike comes in at 25 yards. He was fat and healthy standing broadside. I thought about it, but I have a let the little bucks grow up rule. No bucks this year. Buck tag sandwich for me. I did get a fat doe earlier in the year.
EDIT- This was the last day of the season, last 17 minutes. SRM |
RE: Tag Soup or a Spiker???????
I said I'm shooting. I hope this scenario comes about for me. I haven't killed anything yet this year. This is my 4th year bowhunting and my first without at least one kill. At my lease does are no longer legal I can only shoot a buck with a minimum 13" inside spread or a buck with at least one unbranched antler. So if I even get a chance to go again and spike walks out in front of me, its on!
