I guess I am a trophy hunter
I have never hunted for meat
My reasons to pass on small bucks has nothing to do with QDM or trophy management - I just have no desire to put the little ones down, besides I hunt public land - qdm never was an option.
I also have never taken a doe - probably never will
But I respect all hunters who do things the right way - whether they are popping 10 doe a year or putting down the little bucks.
I could care less what YOU shoot - if it makes you happy - I am gonna help you drag it out
