Default RE: What is really the trophy?

I agree with you 100%, when I first started bowhunting I considered everything I harvested to be a trophy. I still feel that way, but for some reson that massive rack of ANTLERS sure is a plus. On the ranch we hunt, we are under a pretty srtict management program that we dont shoot bucks that are not mature unless they are really under par (management deer) and we harvest a lot of does under this managementprogram and I consider all of them to be a trophy with my bow. I know a lot of people that won't even take a deer unless it scores x amount, I don't agree with that tactic as a whole, to manage your deer herd properly I feel you have to take several deer that won't make P&Y or B&C to get the full potential of your deer herd. Just my thoughts......
