Whenever I have the chance to pass on a small buck it makes me feel better about the following year knowing that all he can do is grow bigger. I have my mind on a maturebuck and nothing less. I wouldn't thinkabout shooting an immature buck just to fill a buck tag. It's just not going to happen. The following year will be rewarding enough to see him grow bigger. Tag soup, it's what's for dinner...

This is private land by the way, so my goal is to manage it properly.
