  1. A few years ago I started a thread about how I passed a buck who was potentially a hundred inches who wasn't done growing and I got creamed by all the so-called meat hunters (which i think is a cop out of people that can't harvest trophies because they can't keep their finger off the trigger which is understandable) I got the same response "I don't eat the antlers"and the meat taste the same to me.. crap ..but anywho like the person that started this thread I do take pride im packing out my game and taking care of the great tasting coues deer meat but I also take pride in the game of working hard to harvest a mature trophy buck I like the way they look and taste in my house.. here's my two cents and my solution is how about we give these "meat hunters" a week and a half to themselves to shoot em a nice young doe in August to get them out of the way of trophy hunters if they truly don't care for antlers and start the trophy hunt in September and give them a week and a half or so to go after fully developed deer so i dont have to cringe every year seeing the balled up sweet bucks takin early... anyways think about game and fish... Thanks

  2. Just thought i would see if anyone has done the same... Last aug i took a few days off work to hunt coues, But this year i will take my days off in sep. I ended up last year passing a good buck cuz i just couldnt help but notice he still had a ways to grow.. So here is my questions? has any one else run into that situation? And dose some deer grow faster than others depending on where they live, age, eat etc...?


  3. Dude, do yourself a favor and let that buck grow all the way!!! Problem with these early hunts is these monster bucks are killed before they finish growing! That buck is a serious stud, but hes probably 60% done growing right there! Plus, that drop tine!

     

    +1 ..... I passed on a buck opening day for that same reason and told myself i wont be hunting again until the last 3 or 4 day of the hunt.
