ORIGINAL: huntingson
I pass on a couple of 115"-120" 2.5 year olds nearly every year. I just won't shoot one under 3.5 years old off of the family farms. Now, come the late season on public land??? That is another story.
To me, a 3.5 year old with alesser scoringrack than a large2.5 year old is still a "trophy". Just the way I look at things.
This is why us public land hunters get screwed.
