I'd let it walk because you never know if he could be the biggest you've ever seen. give him a chance to mature before taking him

if you are hungry and your tag allows it, shoot it!

there is no reaon at all to shoot it, unless u are realy desperate, but if u hav a button buck come on chances are u will hav a few doe come in some time, but let him mature could b the biggest buck u have ever seen some day

Ive passed multiple button bucks this year with my bow. Only reason is because I want them to grow. My first deer everwas a b.b. that I shot during shotgun season, (I thought it was a doe). But yea I'd definitely letthem walk if I saw the buttons. On my property I want to fix the buck to doe ratio, so all buttons live and a lot of does go in the freezer.
