No wrong answer, PT. I just happen to live in a place like you mention.....where I CAN pass on 1.5 yr olds (and some 2.5 yr olds). I saw several of them last year that I watched, only.

If I were meat hunting STRICTLY, I'd tag out in a very short time. I see a lot of deer, though. I hope I don't get tired of butchering them....but it's plausible. I'd like to take 8-10 does out of our herd. MY standard will change ......because I wouldn't have dreamed of buggering up my best spots killing does, last year. This year....I know that's what is best for the herd.
