Would I have a problem with someone shooting him for the meat? Not at all towards the end of the season and the need is there. I would rather they shot a doe if they were hunting with us, but I wouldn't have heartburn too bad if that is their only buck. Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Maybe I'll see a "keeper." I've said I wasn't going to shoot unless I was taking him to the taxidermist. But I really like to shoot... This pic was at 10 at night. But if I see one in daylight it'll probably be him.

If you think you will regret killing him, find you another slick head and let some lead fly. But if you still have some hot does you still have a good chance of seeing bucks that have not been around earlier in the year. That was the case with the buck I was lucky enough to take yesterday. Never had him on camera this year.

I have what used to be a ten point on my property exactly like that and have passed on him several times so maybe next year. Now if your hungry then by all means shoot him if your wanting a wall hanger then wait till next season When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

Chances are you won't ever see him again. If you are like a lot of hunters that don't get to hunt a lot of days then shoot him if you want to.
