hmm well i think any deer can be a trophy just depends who kills it i got what many people would consider a trophy but there was a little basket following behind it that i would have shot and would have considered it a trophy too because i've never killed a deer i got my monster during bow season then the opening day of shotgun i saw another real nice eight pointer and i was completely not excited by it because i knew i couldn't shot it so i just hoped it went over to my friends stand because he would have killed to get a buck like that but it didn't oh well
