Tough decision….

I can't believe this is even a question for some folks

Why? 2 tags multiple shooters? It's a great problem to have, but decisions do have to be made.

I'd burn a tag on him. Let me know when.

I guess I meant that's a great dilemma to have. I never hunted a property where a deer like that would get a pass from me

How much do you really think he'd gain next year? IMO he's already shown you that he's never going to have a lot of tines or junk. He's a big long tall frame. Most he'd do from here is maybe add a little mass. The gamble of letting him go another year is very low odds with probably not much return. So IMO he's ripe for picking.

That is unless you can't get on him. Then the only thing you can do is wait til next year lol

I think your other pics/vis are correct and he's a 4.5yr old.

Yeah, i think so too. I will be crappie fishing in the morn, but will start the chase when i get a south or southeast wind
