Well, I didn't shoot a buck with my ML this year, but I did pass on a decent 9pt.
Honestly, when he came in I had the hammer back and was really thinking about taking the shot - he was 15 yards away. However, I was having a great deal of fun watching two spikes do a little fighting. The 9pt walked over and gave one of them a shot in the backside. He didn't hit him hard enough to cause an injury, but enough to let the spikes know who to fear.
Eventually legal shooting hours had passed and I had to drop my backpack to scare them away.
I actually had more fun watching then I would have shooting him. If I had shot, I would have missed out on some great entertainment. Since I had already shot a buck with my bow I was comfortable with not shooting.
