Jeff, I can only say that I would take a big rack over a worn jawbone any day in any state. Not being smartazz, just the way it is.
Some of us see a big deers rack as a form of art by nature.
I have never seen a deer jawbone collection on anyones walls, even in Florida.
I don't begrudge anyone their view on this, Sliver.
We all know it's more than a "jawbone", though. What if you'd only shot 2.5yr old 130" deer? You sure couldn't claim to be a "mature" buck hunter, could you? But the guy shooting the 100"'ers with the "jawbones" might could.
It's only a different mindset. Never said one was right.
Its all about how much bone is one their head (allways has been, allways will be), and to most, has nothing to do with how old they are.
Hey don't take this the wrong way....because it isn't intended to say anything about you.....but the more I hunt deer.....the more I find I respect the guys who DO put age structure before " of antler. It may very well be because of where I'm from. I don't know. But I think someone else said that it won't always be the popular view. That's OK.
Thanks for the reply.
And Hillbilly.....Don't make fun of me because I can read and write. It's not becoming
