Maybe so. I had a nice 2 year old 6 point I let walk all season. He would have been a shooter this year if he made it and would have been a good buck for my area. He was like clockwork every single day. A neighbor ended up getting him with just a couple of days left in the season. Managing deer in an area with neighbors who don't is like pouring water in a bucket with no bottom. It's an exercise in futility.


I would feel the same way about you though. You shooting a 3.5 year old buck that I had let walk. And others would feel the same way about me. Me shooting a 4.5 year old that another neighbor had let walk.
