Even on the first morning of the first hunt, would have been tough 
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

Never pass on the first day what you wouldn't pass on the last day.

Why would you consider passing if he were in range?

good question..Actually, based on that picture my brain would of shut down and I would slipped into a hunter mode. My next though would be what do I need to fill out on the tag.

Never pass on the first day what you wouldn't pass on the last day. This. your standards change between the first and the last day, at least with most people they do. my buddy just got back from Alaska, he passed on the bull he ended up taking 4 times, just because he wanted to see what was out there. ended up killing it, had a 64" spread, so it was not a slouch. his goal when he got one was to take a 60" or better so it worked out for him, although its not always that way

x2 He's lucky it worked out that way. I've learned the hard way not to pass on day 1 what I wouldn't pass on the last. Never pass on the first day what you wouldn't pass on the last day.
