Even with an antler restriction you have a very slim chance of harvesting a mature buck since your sights are on bare minimum requirements
I have no burning desire to harvest a mature buck so why would I even consider passing on a legal buck?
I pass up deer time after time till I find the buck I am hunting for but then again I put the time and effort into knowing what buck are in the area so I know which buck is the largest and pretty accurately judge how many deer are in the area and the ratio of buck to doe.
You can do whatever you want and you could do it before ARS. But, I can't do what I want because of ARS and hunters like you who prefer to hunt for racks instead of just bucks.
