Germ,
That's not my approach and if someone is not the random weekend warrior then I might
spread the "gospel" of QDM.
My main point was that "some folks just can't be reached."
Their hearts are just not ready to receive (PT understands
).
Here is the problem .... not everyone thinks the same!!!! DOI!!! My feelings on TDM, (and if the "QDM" guys would admit it, that's what they are ..... and by the way, I don't see anything wrong with it ... whatever floats your boat)are different depending on my situation.
Years back I owned land next to a farmer who would not shootsmall bucks. I took a nice 3 1/2 year old buck and passed on many smaller ones. Ihunted where I lived, so I could hunt more.
Now, if I can get out twice per week, I'm blessed. I am hunting land where there are tons of guys and it's the old, "If I don't shoot it, someone else will" mentality..... which I also don't have a problem with ....whatever floats your boat.
I love the taste of venison ... when push comes to shove, and the freezer is empty ... if it's brown it's down. Now if my schedule lightens up to where I can hunt more, I'll be more picky ..... but that's me ....
You that only shoot mature bucks need to back of of those that shoot smaller ones, and you that shoot small ones need to back off of those that QDM or TDM or whatever they call it..... whatever the other guys enjoy ... within the law ....
