txhighrack, i do think that trophy units are a good thing. most people who would be hunting these areas also know what a trophy buck would look like. i beleive u would not have people shooting little basket 5 points and think they got a "trophy". most who put in for that tag know what the area holds for deer! and they would take only a true trophy.

i beleive if more states did a trophy area, they also would get a higher price for those tags. look at iowa= over $400.00! and NEW MEXICO elk areas some are $750.00! why? because of the demand for the trophy areas!

i think it really works and more states should try it!
