Referring to an animal that is “worthy” of one’s tag.

I thought he was more drawn to young meat bucks? Twist that knife baby…Didn't Michael Jackson use that saying before Cameron Hanes?
I’ve only ever been apart of one elk with a name. He got it the day after harvest and is called stitches. Mainly because after we got him out I dropped my buddy off at the er and went back to get him around 3am after the doc got done stitching his him back up.Oh and hunters who use the word "gnarly" to describe an animal.
Also, naming bucks and bulls is cringe AF.
Same here. Guy I bowhunted with had an encounter at close range with a huge bull elk. He said it was so huge, close, and intimidating that he never even got a shot at it. It was right in front of him, imposing a large looming rectangular shape that resembled a train car. He called his bull "Boxcar"!I’ve only ever been apart of one elk with a name.
Was that the year he jumped on the rag horn express?Same here. Guy I bowhunted with had an encounter at close range with a huge bull elk.

“Going for a rip” might be my most hated quote right now.Anything Brian Barney says, particularly going for a “rip” into a spot to hunt. Listen to one Eastman podcast with Barney and you could fill up this thread
All that and you forgot "meat for the freezer"....broI'm in the process of a bow build, don't know what I'll be running for components yet but I know it will be a game changer. This whole site is fire man. Hope to shoot a toad with it. Got to get boots on the ground though to find that giant! When I do...dirt nap for sure. I'm not a brown and it's down kinda guy ya know...I'm kind of a "needs another year" to get him to be a swamp donkey. Last years bow took a management buck...he wasn't the biggest one I've shot but he was on the hit list. Wasn't much ground shrinkage but I wasn't about to eat tag soup ya know? Then again, you can't eat the horns! Up in my tree, I had an itchy trigger finger and thought I hit him a little far back...ended up being center mass, right in the pump station. Told my buddy to "give me a minute" before I climbed down. When I finally found my arrow I said to myself "that's good blood" and just like that I was "on the board baby!" He never even smelled me...completely scent free when I harvested that joker. Just happy to have punched my tag.
