Busted Up
This is one of my two target bucks this season. Now that he has broken off a brow I'm thinking of letting him walk if he comes by in range. Am I crazy thinking this way. He may be better next year and then again he may take a slug in gun season. What would you guys do.

I'd stick him! My personal requirement for a buck, if he presents a shot and he's bigger than what I've taken in the past or of similar size with a lot of character to the rack, he's down!
-
Ur loosing maybe 3 inchs of that brow time at the most! Why sacrifice 3 inches and maybe lose him to a gun hunter who wouldn't think twice about shooting him if say let the arrow fly

You bring up a good point BowGuy2. The score isn't what relly matters to me. He just looked so much more majestic before the brow got broken.

Shoot Dick.....then go buy yourself some bondo!!LOL

I agree. I makes him look more perfect. But he is a true stud very nice deer I wouldn't mind have him hanging from my wall. I think if u had a shot and u passed on him u might regret it later. Good luck on getting the one u want on the ground. Maybe a different stud will walk by u befor he does and u can kill the broken guy next year! That's wishful thinking

This is crazy talk. Shoot the deer if you can. To me, it does nothing but add character and tell the tale of the deers life.

Dick.......we just talk on the phone....you canceled coming up today to hunt with poor old me because you wanted to take a crack at the bucks on your place.....now get OFF the site and go NAIL that buck!!! Good luck buddy!!!!!.....I'll be waiting for that phone call telling me he's down!!!

I'd stick'm. A good taxidermist can fix that brow tine pretty easily if it bothers you that much
