It's always funny how whenever someone makes a thread that mentions shooting larger/older bucks,... you get the same group of "brown & downers" whine and complain about how if they don't shoot the deer in front of them then someone else will! GIVE ME A BREAK!

If deer were as naive and as easily killed as some of you make it sound... there wouldn't be any deer around! Also, if they were that easliy killed a LOT more of you would be able to tag them!

Deer hunting is full of individual choices, from your bow, b-heads, arrows,.... right down to the deer you wanna shoot. If a deer comes by that you'd really like to use your tag on than by all means shoot it. However, as suggested... don't feed us all the BS about how you MUST shoot the deer before someone else does! Also, if you're settling for smaller/immature bucks that you certainly don't EVER have a reason to bitch and cry about there being no big bucks where you hunt!

I always thought it was just human nature to set goals and try to raise the bar.... part of what makes the game fun and keeps it challenging. Obviously many don't see it that way at all... it's kinda sad really and I'm thankful that most of these wankers aren't my neighbors!
