Rob, that is exactly what I was saying. I'm not trying to encourage everyone to go out and whack a 1.5 year old buck because it's the first thing to stumble by. On the other hand, if shooting that buck will put a big smile on your face and you will be proud of it then go for it. Would anyone pass on a monster buck given the opportunity to shoot one? Not likely. Wolfen's standards are different than mine and mine are different than the next guy. I'm just saying I have no right to try to tell Wolfen or the next guy that their standards are wrong because they are different than mine. Some guys here have been saying just that and they are wrong, IMO. I am a big proponent of QDM and shooting a young buck won't help that. As long as it is legal and they are proud to take it, I can't fault another hunter for doing that. Now if a guy goes out 10 years in a row and shoots a buck 10 years in a row and all he has to show are 10 basket rack 4s and 6s from 1.5 year old deer that I don't agree with. I may not agree with it, but if he is proud of it, that's his decision.
