No thanks. whenever im huntin and i see a deer and i decide im going to try and shoot him my heart goes off to the races, reguardless the size or sex. And that is why i hunt, not for the "trophy kill" but im not saying i wouldnt shoot i nice 10 over a doe      :saywhat:   ....Curtis

Heck yeah, As long as it was one off of the front end!   :biglaugh:  

Got plenty of them I can get rid of!  :biglaugh:  

It's those back end ones that get pretty precious!

LOL Not fer nothin but if any of us actually did shoot a world record the related stress that could well come with it may just take that yr anyway.

Guess I'll worry about it if one steps out and offers me a shot......worry about shot placement that is not if it'll shorten my life,that could happen today on my way home like it did to a friend of mine last Thur evening,he was laid to rest yesterday....live for today,tomorrow isn't a given
Shoot straight and have FUN!!

Absolutely not. Bowhunting may be my favorite thing but I'm afraid it isn't the only thing. Life is a gift too precious-every second of it. The only things I'd do that for are my sons. Besides, I'm bound to get lucky if I keep showing up.                    Grant

Not a chance!!! It's about the hunt and being able to hunt.  Besides that what would have to look forward to after that.  If it's only about killing the biggest......YOUR DONE!!!!

At 59 I can not afford to lose a year, don't know how many more years I have left. Just enjoying what time I have left and 13 grandkids.

Brian,

That elk of Paul's I think is a 220 bull:
Paul has the advantage of making EVERYTHING he kills LOOK like a world record!    :bigsmyl:      :biglaugh:    

I'm on the other end of the spectrum with Biggie..if I kill something large it just looks normal sized cause I am so big. If I killed a  moose it would probably look like a shetland pony if I were standing next to it.

Giving me a world record buck still doesn't mean I earned it! If I don't earn it, it isn't that special.

no chance I have killed some Big Deer and NO life is worth way more than 15 min of fame or 1 deer no matter what size  :knothead:

It's not about the trophy or the record.... I said no way and I would have given the same answer 22 years ago!

Ray-I can relate! LOL  :)  6-3 240  :(

If I were too shoot a world record bull elk; how much of that elk would I get to eat... as opposed to if I shot an average cow elk? I mean everyone would want some of the meat from a world record elk- right?

 Me thinks I will skip shooting a world record- for that reason alone!   :)  

 Whew.... the preasure is off !
