Why is it always either "meat" or "antlers"???........Like it is some black and white issue that has no chance of ever landing somewhere in the middle. I like bucks as much as the next guy in the woods......taking a big deer is fun........so is taking a smaller deer......if I see headgear coming at me in the woods my eyes don't pop out of my head.......my heart races just as fast when I see a doe coming up the path. For anyone out there that has lost that feeling and can only get excited about a big buck I honestly feel sorry for you.......and I hope I never sit in my stand watching deer and not feel the thrill I still do today. My heart beats just as hard.......maybe harder then the day I took my first deer almost 15 years ago. I still feel like that young kid every time I raise my bow or gun and settle in behind the shoulder of a deer no matter what is on it's head.
