I agree...but some public land tracks have size limits. I know not everyone obeys these rules, but if you want to really increase the quality of the population we got to follow size limits. I personally wouldn't shoot a buck that is less than 15" spread. Cuz, hopefully he will be bigger next year. As, far as behind your house, whatever suites your fancy. I would try to use some sort of QDM behind your house, just for fun!
