I really don't care what anyone shoots....there all trophies! For me, in this stage of my hunting experiance, I shoot a doe to eat and then hunt monsters. On our property for 25 years we (our group/party) only shot 1 trophy buck. In 25 years we maybe only ever even saw 3 or 4 trophies. 5 years ago we decided to quite shooting any buck unless it had a huge rack. Lots of disipline! The first couple years we didn't shoot any bucks,but the last 3 years have totally changed our woods.......we see lots of trophy bucks, lots of medium and plenty of spikes and baskets! The last three years, we got4 trophy bucks and see/had numerous encouters with other bruisers. Our hunting has greatly changed. We still take lots of does for meat. Our experience.....let'm grow! If you don't care about big racks...shoot for meat....thats fine too!

Good Luck...enjoy your season!
