Hunting is just that... its hunting. A person is going out and Hunting for something they want. If that is meat only then great, if you have the means to "trophy hunt" thats great too. It's a decision for each person to make. I deffinately went through a time when i just shot whatever gave me the oportunity when i was younger, but now i typically let the younger bucks walk just because i know that i will get an opportunity for meat later with a doe. (buck to doe ration in alabama is rediculously off compared to other states) I have killed enough young bucks but would never look down on someone for doin it.
In the end our main goal as hunters should be: to pass the sport on just like my father did to me and i intend to do to my children, be stewards of the land, and enjoy the time God has given us to do so.
