We like to let the Younger Bucks grow and Mature,if there's a Buck that can't seem to grow a nice Rack we have shot one like that and was plenty happy with the meat and I have given the hide away for a Taxidermist to use in mounting a different Buck on!
I've taken many Deer over the years and like to shoot a nice 8-Point or Bigger Buck and I have had several nice Bucks on my trail camera to where I could be much more selective and picky!Still as the Season goes on and Hunting gets tougher I'm just as happy with a nice Big Fat Mature Doe and I save a lot of money when I don't have a Big Ol Buck to mount!
Last year I passed on a decent Young 8-Point Buck....I knew I wouldn't have Him mounted so why waste a nice Deer that will be much better next year?Plus I ended up shooting a decent Doe later on and the Nephew wiped out the front of His Moms Mini-Van hitting a nice tender 7-Point Buck 2 weeks before Rifle Season so I was ahead of the Game from the start!
