Hey Dan
you are wrong. I was in the area the Benoits were. Lane stopped in our camp to see our bucks. they shoot mature deer. cannot knock them for that. they are good guys too so if you knock them it becuase you are jealous

I saw 2 trappers shoot a small 8 pointer an 5 pointer. I saw two locals shoot spikes while cutting firewood. the tourist outfitter we were staying with told us he only shoots spikes and forks. He thinks they taste better....so you are way off on that,. you are alwasy going to have that, it is the way it is

I do agree with you that the guys that follow the Benoits shoot some young deer. Hal Blood has guys follow him form Maine too and they shoot the first deer they see
