I let the little guys go. They're fun to watch, I just sit back and think, well maybe in two or three years from now this little guy may walk back in and eat under the same oak tree and i'll be letting the smokepole ring out.

Not me. I pass up young bucks no matter where I'm hunting.

Some days I shoot the first thing that walks bye..... Some days I will let them walk... I guess it depends on where I'm at, in that place in time in my life.... That's what I love abouting hunting... I never know what I'm going to do in that moment of time until it happens... I wish I could take a few of those moments back....

i am now more than i used to be. i didnt kill a deer all year. i let 3 good bucks walk this year. 1 was an 18'' heavy 6pt that i would have killed but he had a broke g2. i set my goal for a deer to be over 130'' this year and never pulled the trigger because never seen 1 that big. this is the first year since i was about 9 that i didnt kill a single deer. im 23 now.
