I've decided for myself to pass on anything less than 8pts. this year.
That's great for you.
IMHO the thing that makes getting a nice size rack so great is that it shows the hunter has reached a certain level of skill, the bigger a fish or deer is the less luck played into it and the more animal smarts had its part in such longevity
If you say consistently gets bigger deer unless it fits into the scenario I mentioned before.
What you CHOOSE to pass up gets passed on to the next hunter or next generation.
Tell that to all the deer I passed thet end up in the grill work of someones car. Seriously I would rather pass on knowledge of the woods and how to hunt to the next generation. Then how to grow bucks. I'll be taking my neighsbor kid out alot this year,pass it on.
