Your places to hunt are just okay at best. You've taken a couple antlerless deer already. Would you shoot this buck? Does he need shooting anyway? (apologies for the quality). “Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.” On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

I wouldn't put him on the wall and I don't necessarily believe in "cull" bucks. I would pass. He may turn your "ok" spots into a better then ok spot next season. BUT.. If you want to shoot that sucker, and he flickles your pickle, shoot him. The fool tells me his reasons; the wise man persuades me with my own.

I want to shoot the one what did the breaking. “Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.” On the distance I like to walk to my stands: “The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

If so, he has broken his left brow tine also. You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go.... (Seuss)
