Would y’all shoot this buck?

I would drop that buck 6 days a week and twice on Sunday, grave yard dead!

I would shoot him with a bow for sure but probably not a rifle. He looks like a 2.5 year old, plenty of time to grow

i kinda figured most would say kill, I was just curious. All my friends or family said shoot for meat but let grow for horns. Just saying next year he should be a straight up beast

If/when I kill him I’ll for sure put pics on here

Hard to say from the angle but looks like a older deer so that might be all the potential he has left. After 5-6 yrs old rack size can start regressing to smaller width but more mass

sitting in my living room looking at pics of him i say let him walk. If i was in the woods with a rifle and saw him.......dead

I do get what you are saying but I’m not seeing a sway back or anything that would suggest he is an older deer.

Physically he is bigger than a 2 1/2 year old. One picture is hard to quantify. I believe he is an older buck as well

I agree definitely no sway in the back. The angle he is standing makes it a tough call I’m going off body size but definitely could be a younger buck with more to grow in a season or two.

Personally with a bow I would shoot him but I’d let him walk with a rifle unless I could definitely say he’s a old mature buck on the decline

Put him in the freezer already......
