Beezer, I hear ya. Yes, it's about antlers and will always be about antlers. UM's deer pic was of a buck with nice antlers. Where's the pic of the doe? There's something magical about antlers. The bigger the antlers, the better. The higher they score, the more noteworthy they are and yes, even worth a lot of money to some people. That's the way it was before I started deer hunting over 36 years ago and even more so now. Most deer hunting shows are about killing bucks with big antlers because that's what is desired. Personally, I'm not a trophy hunter and I won't let a buck with small antlers stand between me and a good venison steak. When I begin to judge the success of my hunt on the size of the bucks antlers, I guess it would be time for me to give it up and I don't see that happening anytime soon.
