I just couldnt pull the trigger on the piebald

Post by longbow joe »

Image[/URL l was just in stand around five o clock today i was texting anthony and a few hunting friends when here comes this piebald button buck. Although i have a doe permit and he was fair game i just couldnt pull the trigger on the 70 pounder. If it would have been mature i woulda drilled him. I kept thinking a the ribbing i woulda took from the girls if i woulda brought him home lol. There is very little hunting pressure at this spot......maby next year we will neet again. ]

Good choice to let him grow. I hope the other hunters do the same for a few years..

That's a neat looking deer. I'd let him walk too. Wouldn't it be great to have such a unique animal around for three or four years at least?

I let a piebald doe walk a few years back as she was the only one I have ever seen in the County I hunt in. A friend of mine saw her after the season was over in a food plot close to where I saw her. She has not been seen again to my knowledge.
