Default RE: got me thinking

My dad shot a 184" and jokes and says he can't shoot a buck smaller than 184 now....

If you had a lot of land you managed, I think that would be a good philosophy, eventually your bucks would just keep getting bigger. Though I think alot of times bucks are bigger than they appear...esp big bucks....you may see a 160 so you think and its really a 180.

Haven't you ever seen bucks on a display and guessed and been way off? like way over, or way under...

If I shot a 210" typical ya it would be hard to wait for something bigger, though I'd still look for big boys 180" + or big non typicals etc...

I'd still be a trophy hunter. Could always quit....but why, I want more big boys on the wall. Some guys are impressed by 20 135" class bucks on a wall, to me 3-5 160"+ is a more impressive stat.
