whats the smallest buck you would shoot?

It all depends on the day. I have let small ones walk and I have shot small ones. The only buck that I wont shoot knowingly is a button buck.

 

that depends how long it will take me to screw the 150" horns into that button buck!!!

 

Here is my BIGGEST buck to date.



My friends know me as a Doe hunter, I am not big on antlers. Though I think a week in Nebraska is about to change my ways.

nice jim. To put any buck down is an accomplishment...

 

I'm a meat hunter, Since I stopped consuming any/all commercial meat my asthma went away and other stuff. so for me, if it's legal, it groceries!

 

bucks dont taste as good as does anyways!!!

 

ive had the spotting scope and binos out many times this year and what ive seen so far, i wont take anything smaller then the 10 point ive been watching, hes not huge but a very nice deer, their 2 8s that are nice, id take one of them on the last week just to get a nicer buck if i cant arrow the 10, ive got 2 doe tags so i will not have a empty freezer.

 

in the past on the place we leased and managed ....a long horn spike... 6" plus.... otherwise i would take a doe as it was not a problem to fill your tags so the freezer stayed full

now where i am hunting this year buck or doe if it is legal i will shoot to get meat in the freezer

 

Young ones do
:biggrin1: :biggrin1:

 

around here it has to have 3 points on a side to be legal,.................

for me, I am going 8 points or better from now on......

 

at this point I would probly mistake a buck for a doe. I just want to get one, anyone...

 

Thats how I feel as well

 

I would and have let button bucks pass, when I see the buttons :biggrin1: . Depends on how early in the season too. If I think it might be my last time out he better not dilly-dally around my stand.

 

If you shoot them before the horns show up its still a buck right? :frusty:

 

Antlers or antlerless:biggrin1:
