Tracy, if that elusive, wily old buck that shows up on the trail cam photos is well past his prime from a more "traditional" trophy sense, and that decline is visually apparent, would you still take him over a younger, more robust and visually pleasing specimen, while letting that more magnificent specimen walk?

Not trying to back you into a corner, just curious about what drives each of us to hunt.


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
