judging by what I have read so far I wonder. Growing up we hunted much the same "if its brown its down theory". Antlers were a plus! Some folks just dont care if they get them or not but will take them over a biggun! Others dont have the time or want/desire for a big buck. They shoot the first buck that walks and then conjure up dreams of bigger ones, not to mention the heckling you'd get in camp for shooting a spike....but what is wrong with it? If you're not managing a particular plot of land for big bucks...shoot what you want. The tags dont say you cant shoot a buck if you have a doe tag. I wont disagree, I would much rather shoot a big fat doe then a spike but its just another optoin! I dont mean to stick up for them but come on...yall are going to make this a rich sport REAL quick if antlers are why you are in the woods!
