I feel your pain. I seen a massive 4 pointer! yes 4 pointer was rediculously thick and at least 18" wide, walked under my stand 3 times last year, i called him back every time with my can. He was obviously the dominant buck in the area, but I couldnt put brow tines on him to save my life. So he went on down the trail and I shook my head, however I ended up shooting a 142" a week later in montgomery county. So Ill take the rule any day of the week. However, I also talk to the local game warden and not to bust any bubbles, but just as many 4 and spikes with a Y one one side are being shot, people just say they mistaked them. We need harshy penalties for the "Mistake kills" that is...if they keep the rule. depends on what your hunting for. Meat and a lot of lil racks, or big thickmature deer, but not so many. Just my opinion, good luck to everyone going out tomorrow morning, its finally cooled down here in SE PA so im heading out first thing in the am.
