I've got a P&Y eight running around where I hunt, a total monster 8..
Back to the other thing, I would shoot small bucks if they have no potential. In example I've got a new buck on my ground that has one spike, so I may take him out of the gene pool. But where I hunt there are just as many bucks (if not more) than does. Problem is most of them are small 4, 6, and 8 pointers. I personally have not taken nor would take a shot at the 1 or 2 year old small rack bucks, give them a couple years to see what happens. Now I don't worry about keeping the bucks in check like I would does because during gun season and deer drives etc people shoot it if it's brown so I know many of them are taken during that time..

Now there are some "monsters" running around, I have pics of several but they are mostly nocternal and very hard to hunt, hard or not these are the ones that I'm after.. If not then does sure do make good meat!!!! This is just me though..
