Fill the tag' you cant cook it ! :)
a nice rare vension steak tastes way better than a dry old tag, go get em.
You shouldn't have any regrets, it's not like you took a six-point and a ten point came in while you were dressing him. The waiting game was played, now it's ok to let the arrows fly!
Depends how you're managing your property.. If you have the option to let them grow, let them be your trophy next year!! Take a doe and eat that! If you don't have the option of management, I guess you can take one of the small boys.. I'd rather watch them grow myself.
BACK STRAP ON THE BREAKFAST TABLE IS MORE DIGESTIBLE THAN THAT TAG!
id let the arrow fly on one of the 8 points
For me it will be eat the tag or put it on a doe if the buck I want does not come by.
BTW saw a monster 8 pointer today just off KS highway 7. He was very close to the place where I got a big buck that was injured by a car last week.
Time to eat!
i'd let'em have it at this point.
If it's private land you manage, stick to your gameplan, but if it's public land, I'd probably shoot one.
backstrap boogie!
SHOOOOT. you might as well fill oyur tags while you have the chance.
shoot the suckers. if you pass them up you will be wasting money and meat.
how hungry are you?
I eat a lot of tags, but that is the main course, if you're wanting to tag a large deer.
I get my does,but always hold out for a particular buck!
