it all depends. any buck is a trophy in my eyes. that six i shot this year and posted, if you saw me in person, you woulda thought i shot the world record. i carry around a picture to show people. what made me so proud was that it was my first deer on public land, and after some close calls with bigger bucks, i finally shot this one. during bow i let him walk during the rut, but that was b/c i knew i stood a better chance at shooting a monster. i shot a doe last year on 12/31/02 and was sooooo proud of it b/c it was my first deer with the bow. i am still sooooo proud of that one. weighed only about 90 pounds, but tasted good.

and then there was the doe i shot from the ground this year at 10 yards. and then there was my FIRST deer. and my first buck, shoulder mounted on the wall. he was a weak eight with a 16 1/2" inside spread. probably wouldnt even score that much over 100". i will never know b/c i could give two ****s. the tape will never touch him.
basically, every deer i take is a trophy to me b/c i work my ass off during the off season and keep my grades up during the deer season, and still manage to have a job, play varsity football, and keep my friends, and keep my girl(s). i find something in every deer that makes it a trophy. i shot a deer the same day as my varsity game this year. that made it a trophy. it was my first deer i EVER shot in the morning. ya see what i mean???
