    Shooter for me, but mine nor anyone else's opinion should sway your opinion.

    Everyone has a different opinion on what a shooter is. If you would be happy shooting him then it's a shooter. Who cares what others think. I would shoot him

    If that walked in front of me, it would have an arrow flying at him.

    Nice Ruttin buck.

    Not a shooter for me but only because I'm chasing two others that are bigger.

    Oh I really don't care what other's think if I were to shoot it or not. I'm most curious, if this guy were to live another year, if he would be that much bigger or not.

    You guys that pass on deer like that or are thinking of passing on deer like that have it made where you hunt I guess. Try hunting public land in far western mass. If you saw a deer like that you would never think twice about not shooting. Just saying...

    Yes I would shoot it. Where I hunt we don't have bucks that big.

    I don't think I have it made. I have killed a deer that big before. I don't need to kill a buck every single year just to say I did. Why not let him grow and possibly have a chance at a bigger deer the next year....
