I've recently adapted to "No Shoot bucks" should be agreed on by all. No need to have a rule for no shoot bucks. If everyone on the lease wants to have a no shoot buck , then everyone wants to have the deer live just as bad as someone seeking to shoot any other target buck. If everyone truly wants to walk a particular buck, mistakes aren't going to happen. When one person or a handful of members are wanting the "no shoot" policy on a deer more so than other members on the lease, that's when I see the most problems.

What to do when a lease member shoots a buck on the no hit list ?

I think a general rule about age and number of mature deer can be acceptable rules for the management of the property. But I agree too many rules can cloud the excitement of hunting in general. Sitting in the blind and worrying about making someone getting mad if you shoot this deer takes the fun right out. However, IF rules are set they should be followed if you dont agree theres the door find a new place.

I just enjoy this forum and brought up something that we had a issue with is all I’m not trying to say anyone of you is wrong are right and I don’t care if you agree are disagree the situation. I’m sorry I brought it up but it is about bowhunting and not any off the wall stuff !!

So it was confusing at first but what I’m getting is
1) Buck at question was on no shoot list then brought to the table to take off since he was of age (5.5) but it was decided against because he could be bigger at 6.5.
2) communication of point one was understood by most but seems to have not been communicated properly to everyone on the lease
3) Member in question sounds like he knew but was unclear. Buck in question walked out, he decided to shoot, and couldn’t find it.
4) Since this buck was already a iffy situation the member didn’t say a word until someone else pointed it out
Is that correct?Last edited by 150class; 11-02-2018, 11:23 AM.
