Is he a shooter?

He appears to be a mature deer. His rack isn't the nicest, but he has a monster body for around here and he would definitely be my biggest buck to date. I'm afraid that I might not see him again if I pass him up, because this is a large piece of property.

Having fun hunting him? Then he's a shooter.
It a challenge? Then he's a shooter.
You eat venison ???? Then he's a shooter.
You a trophy guy, then he ain't.
That simple.

He's at least a 3.5 yr old, shooter most anywhere.

Whether he's a shooter or not depends on you. I've hunted places (private farms) where we pass them up like that and other places (public hunting areas) where we'd shoot them. If I was hunting in South Georgia, I'd say he's a shooter.

If you would be happy with shooting him then yes. I would shoot him.. thanks for posting

He is definitely a mature deer. So I would take him out at that age in many places he would be considered a cull because of his age but lack of massive horns. On public land he has horns and is mature. So I would shoot him if the chance was presented to me on private or public land.

If he gives me a shot,a shooter he would be. A Buck that size would be twice as big as the only one I have ever shot. A shooter,you bet.

he's old enough to have better horns. Time to make him table fair.

he's a stud, just not a star
