it's kind of a two part question
first, how many of you guys are trophy hunters??
how many of you guys hunt for the meat??

i would ask who just hunts for the passion of the sport but i know that 99.9% of you would say yes to that question.

in asking this question i asked myself what is quality deer management anyways?? does deer with bigger antlers really make a healthier herd?? don't get me wrong, i would love to see bigger bucks in the woods and be able to harvest a monster with a massive rack, but at the same time i feel that a deer is a deer and meat is meat. infact i heard that 1st year deer are "very good eatin'", i for one past on yearlings. i'm just wondering what you guys think on the subject.
