    Passed on this public land buck twice last season, He is #6 this year, but I think I will pass again and hope to see him next year. What do you guys think? 9-2-14 Broken Boulder.jpg 12-30-2013 Broken Boulder.jpg

    Unless he struck me as younger or smaller in person, considering it's a public land buck and I think he's at least 3.5...I'm probably shooting at him within 40 yards.

    All depends on location and quality of management around you.

    That's a definite shooter!

    I'm going to quit talking to you if you pass on him.

    If the pic matches him in real life, especially on public land, I'd have to put'im down.

    I would shoot! I have never hunted public land (been blessed with family land and friends private properties) but depending on how many hunters you have in the area I cant imagine that deer making it out alive this season..

    I guess I will have to shoot then, but maybe only if its the end of the season. I just would really like to see him with 1 more year of growth! Thanks for the opinions.
