Bowhunters ...... Are all the deer taken by you a trophy to you?

[PreacherTony]

By Trophy, I mean something you are proud of having taken ....

I just checked it out ..... the national average for bowhunter success is 19%

Obviously, this varies by state. Example, OH -17%; MO - 35% ....

Now this is for ANY deer .... vote and give us your thoughts .....

Yes, I think this has already been talked about today...

Any deer I shoot is a trophy to me. A P&Y buck is a very special trophy for me.

I shoot does to help the state manage the herd.

You just had to put that up didn't you

but to answer your question, I'm tickled if I see a deer, so I'm usually tickled at least 5 or 6 times a sit

Last years buck wasn't a trophy to me. It might be other peoples views. I was hit by a car before it got to me. That is why I shot it.I do hold out for a deer that is a trophy to me.

Nope. But none are regrets.
