Those are some nice bucks. Hopefully you don't regret passing on them this early. I have a rule where if I would shoot it at the end of the season then i will shoot it at the begining of season. I seems like you are in a good spot though.

I still regret not taking a shot at a great buck last December I knew I could have hit it but was not 100% it would be a pass though. I thought at the time I would see him again.... never did. I too am a meat hunter and I don't pass up a doe.... unless of course she is looking back over her shoulder.

I enjoy my dear meat but shooting a guy with some headgear is always a plus! I could have shot any of them three, they were at 8 yards. It was hard to pass on them but I got a video of it which is pretty cool. Only time will tell if I will regret it. But if I do, they will just be bigger next year!

Great looking deer! I would hope it was hard to pass on these guys. But another year or 2 and they'll be giants. Were they all running together or did they come through separate?

well way I see it , is if you want a bigger buck, you have to let the smaller one's walk
cannot get what you want any other way
I know I pass on more bucks any more , to the point its crazy some yrs
but I am not trying to fill the freezer anymore
and running out of room on the wall, so has to be a reason I kill a deer anymore, and head gear is more of what I go by, or injuries!
