Our property is part of QDM and we only take bucks that are a certain size.
If you are a first year hunter...you can take anything that passes by. Once you have shot your first deer, then the system is enforced.
I shot my first deer in 1996 (doe). This year I passed up two does, a nice 8pt and never had the 13 pointer come close enough.
I would say don't pass judgement on people until you know their situation.
Just my thoughts.
