I've always tried to do a good job half way managing the place I hunt. Yes I'll admit there was a few deer that probably shouldn't of been shot but they're dead and you can't do anything about it. I've showed y'all pictures of this buck before and had already decided in the summer that I wanted to let this deer walk. I was seeing him quite regularly but hadn't seen him since week one in rifle season. I thought I caught a glimpse of him Thursday morning but wasn't sure. Well this morning I saw him and confirmed it was him and he stayed around and visited. For and hour. 75 yards from the blind and I took this picture of him and let him walk away, sure hope he makes it cause I have big expectations for him

Great looking buck. I hope he makes it for you and I hope to see a picture.

Nice buck!!!

that's a good buck. Yep its hard to let'em walk, but you have to take the chance. We always complain about the neighbors shooting the young ones. My boys told me that if we shoot the young ones, then WE are the neighbors!!

Toughest thing to do is let a good buck walk.

Nice buck! It would be really tough to let him walk. Is this a Lexington Buck?

Nice buck!! Bet it was tough to let him walk, hope he sticks around for next year

Hope he sticks around

Don't know if it is the pic or not, but love the color of his horns.

Nice

nice buck. Good luck! I'd have had a difficult time letting him go!
