Weapon: Traditional Bow
Distance: 15 yards
Conditions: sunny, light breeze
Situation: This bruiser hasn't noticed you yet in your blind - he's walking right into the wind

Will you take the shot?
What are your concerns that make/break your decision to shoot?
Tell us what you think!

If I'm not shooting, I must be sleeping. :lolouch:

This one's a no brainer unless I'm missing something major!

To get a picture like that my camera would have to be mounted on my broadhead

[grizzly]

The only way I would not be shooting is if I knew there was a school yard over the hill behind the buck; and then only if my kid wasn't there at the time.

If I knew the terrain was clear I would definitely shoot now, the shot angle is only going to get worse the further he walks.

I would take that shot in a heartbeat provided I can get around (over) that bush thats right in the foreground of that pic ....If I cant move to the right of where the camera is I probally would have to pass that shot ......and do so trimming when he goes away

Other than that ... ya dont get much better than that ......

Also I would like to know whats on the other side of that mound ....but If I have my blind there then I already know its all good

Two words:

I wouldn't shoot, but I guess I have a little extra info. He is only a 3 point on the right antler ( am I being too picky :smile: ). Here are a few more looks at him. By the way, nothing over the knoll but a big ol bush.

Shoot true and shoot now :cheers:

As long as the arrow was going over the brush in front, its already on its way.
As for the 3 point right side, I see that kicker, :wink: and besides, that buck just has character. :D

I would also take the shot but make it quick,Look close his ears are on to you ,now if your looking at the next set of pictures the ears don't lie he's got ya pinned.

You miss 100% of the shots you don't take! That one's a no-brainer for me. I daydream for 9 months of the year about shot opportunities like that!!!
