Home Forums Hunting & Shooting General Big Game Tagging out the first morning of a hunt

I have passed deer during our archery season (October) and opening day of rifle season. The past four years, I killed a buck here in Maine on the last day of the season, be it rifle or ML. Several years ago, I passed up a 9 pointer the first day of the season only to kill the same deer a month later on the last day. He weighted less and it was a much longer drag. That is when I said to myself, if I would shoot him the last day I sure as heck will shoot him the first.
