Were I grew-up in PA and did most of my hunting a 6 pt was often the best deer you could ever hope to see. Also, there used to be rules in affect that when you shot 1 deer you were done. I went many archery seasons without taking a shot due to the old rules.
As for as rack size goes. I'll pass on smaller bucks but I'm not basing rack size on if it will make the P&Y or B&C. Six points or more and I'll shoot it. I'm lucky if I can hunt archery 10 to 15 times a year with my schedule.
Man, I remember those days in PA. A lot of times where there were does within range and knowing if I dropped the hammer I'd miss out on buck camp. Those were some backward thinking times, which unfortunately still linger with some hunters here. Things are getting much better though.
