I don't really consider myself a trophy hunter.We have a 2 buck limit and would shoot a cull buck in a minute.As far as 1 1/2 olds I let them walk and try to take a doe.I haven't shot a buck going on 3 years now,but I still have all of Dec.So far I've seen 7-1 1/2 old bucks and 1 mature buck that winded me ofcourse.I still consider the season a success even with my tags going unfilled.
