Default RE: 6 point or 10 point?

I only know the land I hunt on. It's all private......and I dount I go to the same woodlot, now, more than once a week. Are my deer pressured? Nope. Are they easy to kill? I'll say this......if I wanted to have all 6 of my tags filled, right now....I could. I don't need to kill a deer just to say I killed a deer....or had all of my tags filled. I like to hunt. I like to be in the tree. I like watching the 4 sparring matches I saw between the 6 immature bucks, Saturday. I like having a 5 pointer come in and bed down @ 14 yds for 1:40. I like seeing the turkeys.

Yeah.....honestly......I guess simply killing deer would be "fairly" easy, around here. I had a 6 pointer @ 14 yds, broadside, for quite a while, yesterday. He looked thin and also looked like he'd be something, next year. I let him walk. I also saw 7-8 more that I didn't want to shoot at.

I've never hunted public land. I RARELY ever hunt where someone else has permission to hunt, either (I have sole access to most of my hunting land). BUT....I wouldn't dare judge what someone else does in a free-chase scenario, either (Or in a non-fair-chase scenario if it were legal).
