Finally A Nice Buck Showed Up On This Property......

But I think I'm gonna give him another year or two. What do y'all think?

He's young. If you think he'll get through a couple seasons - neighbors, etc- then give him a pass. If he makes you happy now, kill him first chance you get. It's your call. How much land are you hunting? What is the pressure like from the neighbors?

Just a few acres. Hunting pressure is moderate.

That's the dilemma; you could pass him up opening day, and then hear a rifle crack a few hundred yards away. He'll make someone happy. Has your place consistently produced higher end bucks? It's all part of the equation, and only you know the answers. But these are the questions you need in mind when deciding. Good luck this year.

Thanks. And for the last 4 or 5 years it's been pretty good.

Is he a piebald? Young buck with potential. All that matters is if he makes you happy, my small farm I would let him walk.

No he's not. It rained a little overnight, so I'm thinking he's just wet.
