Well I have been close to a couple of 2 1/2 year olds, but no shots. Not big enough by some standards, but big enough for mine in this period of my hunting career. There are bigger out there, I have seen them in the distance or on camera, and if one comes by or I can figure out the pattern to intercept, I will try to arrow one, but that is yet to be seen.

I think we all need to agree to disagree with the way all the other people hunt. Just hunt and have fun!!

I have heard this talk from wolfen every year since we have been here, but I don't believe I ever seen him tell somebody not to shoot the smaller bucks. He may give his opinion on why that person shouldn't shoot the small bucks though. He is just trying to pass on his successful beliefs in deer hunting onto to somebody else. Don't we all do that in some way or another? Friends saying they won't hunt with you if you go traditional, just another difference in beliefs.... and on and on and on.

IL_Corn_Fed is about the same way. You look at these guys track records and they have some very nice deer to show for their techniques. I remember the pictures in the past of these 2 with the bucks they have shot. And they were just awesome. Is their strategy right for everyone? Maybe...maybe not, but you will never know until you have tried it for a couple of years.
