I'm a "wannabe" mature buck hunter but I have to be realistic.......the area I live in sucks and if I only hunted truly mature deer 3.5yrs or older I'd fill a tag about once every 10yrs. Here in PA anyway. The first nice 2.5yr old buck will get it everytime here in PA, I just hunt areas that are pressured beyond anything many of you guys could even comprehend.
The standards do rise to a mature buck or nothing when I hunt the midwest but that's really working well for me too.
You kinda seemed like an opportunist to me anyway![8D]
Besides, if you keep hunting for those big bucks you'll probly end up killing yourself!
