You made the right choice in not taking the shot. I am a firm believer in not taking a shot unless you are 99.9 % sure you will take the deer. I kick myself around sometimes as well after I have passed up a shot. It is always better to not know than to wound and lose one of these great animals.

I definitely think you made the right choice. If you hesitate at all when thinking about making a shot, don't do it. There no feeling worse than injuring an animal and never finding it, or making it suffer a slow death. Out of respect for the animal you make the right choice...he'll be bigger next year!
