Yes, you have the right to be irritated. Its very frustrating to see some guys shoot all these little bucks. When you pass up these little bucks in hopes they can grow and they cross the property and get shot then yes, its frustrating.

I hear the "I'm a meat hunter" stuff all the time. If that was true it wouldnt hurt to pass these little bucks up and take a doe or mature buck.
I understand your frustration but here's the flaw in that thinking. In some areas is not legal to take does every day of the season. Where I hunt in VA there's only 2 doe days during all of rifle season. One of our tags is a "buck only" If you're a meat hunter and you have to fill that buck only tag then you're gonna take the first set of horns that comes by becasue after all it is meat. Again I understand your frustration but not everyone has the luxuary of being able to take does all season long.
