RE: Who would shoot?
I would shoot it, I would break the law
There, i broke the pattern :D |
RE: Who would shoot?
Breaking the law is POACHING, pure and simple! There is no way of sugar coating it, its POACHING!
I have had the opportunity, but I declined! The only reason to shoot it would be for a "trophy," and I could not look at an illegal deer hanging on my wall everyday for the rest of my life! |
RE: Who would shoot?
Of course you knew the correct answer without even asking. But I question part of your initial statement:
he will be bigger next year, do not risk getting in trouble with the law and the club. |
RE: Who would shoot?
ORIGINAL: Allen Denton If they only had doe tags left and a 20 inch ten pointer ran by then at 15 yards? My buddy killed 2 bucks earlier in the season and was saving one for the big one. Well last week he shot what he thought was a doe that ended up being a 4 point. That left him with only doe left to kill. The last day of the season he was in his stand and 11 deer took off out of the woods heading right towards him. He could see the big buck near the rear of the pack of deer so at 100 yards he stood up to try and turn the buck towards the guy next ot him. The buck and the rest of the deer ran right at him and past by him at 15 yards. He did not shoot and most of the guys at the club told him that he did good not to shoot. There were ar few that said he should have shot the buck and they would have covered for him. I agree with the way he did it, he will be bigger next year, do not risk getting in trouble with the law and the club. As others have said, anyone who would shoot is a poacher and doesn't deserve to have the privilege of hunting. |
RE: Who would shoot?
not if you want to remain onour lease next year

RE: Who would shoot?
We were hunting a spot that the farmer wanted does killed and he took the shot in the woods behind him. He said he saw the whole deer and then when the deer stopped the head was behind a tree. The deer only weighed 107 and he thought it was a doe. He made a big mistake, the other buck would have been his biggest to date.

RE: Who would shoot?
Not if he doesn't have a tag. He did the right thing.
Hats off to him for making the right decision. |
RE: Who would shoot?
No he did the right thing

RE: Who would shoot?
Hell use a semi auto with a 20 or 30 round mag and take them all out. Just kidding - your friend did the right thing.
All he needs to do now is find a godd stand location for next year after some preseason scouting. |
