Would you shoot a huge 6 pt? The picture doesn't do him justice. Came out this morning and I took pics through the binos.

I'd shoot that deer if its at least 3.5 years old. A truly big 6-pointer is a unique trophy IMO

He's definitely 3.5. His main beams were bladed all the way out. He came out in the pipeline 3 times looking for does. Made a scrape and left. Never seen him before.

Keep in mind that if the pics don't do him justice then he will be shrunk up on the ground too.

At the drop of a hat if he is 3.5 or older. I had one like that in my front yard one year, just standing there looking at my dogs, I could have busted him, but there is a road on the other side. Told my neighbor and the next day he took it, now on his wall.

Yes! We had a big 6 on our place last year and he was on our hit list, he was a very dominant buck and guess what? We have a bunch of little 6's running around too!!

Yes, by all means, shoot the 6pt. This tells you all you need to know... Hold out, he knows of a stud.

I love big 6's.............. Big 6 is a very rare trophy NO to all of these...... the few times I've seen a "big 6" on my place I wanted to kick my own arz for not culling him sooner, a 3.5 6pt is probably not going to push too many bucks around, but a 4.5 or 5.5 will do some damage to better quality young deer.

Yes, by all means, shoot the 6pt.  You are just wanting him to burn his only tag on the old 6 pt aren't you

He just came out again grunting and chasing 2 does. I could hear him grunting from 300 yards away. Pretty neat.

  Been trying to get eyes on this big 6 for years, he goes 100% nocturnal about this time of year and then disappears until the coming fall. We always wonder if he's still alive, he just keeps coming back. Maybe this is the year...or maybe I just tip my cap to an old, smart buck.
