Size doesn't really matter here. Too often if you hold out for a big buck you may get none! Cumulative inches matters. Remember that 10 deer scoring 90" each is better than 5 P&Y 150 ". THat's 900 v. 750. Where I hunt I can take multiple bucks, so the first halfway decent one that comes by I'm gonna take. If your rules are more restrictive then you have no choice. If you have a choice then that's just it you choice, but it all adds up!
