Yea I know it takes all types, I'm not refering to either extreme. I'm talking about the guy who can shoot a couple does for meat and that's plenty. He's already shot a couple dozen bucks in life and they all sit in a box in his basement. He only shoots it to say he got one. Some one should be able to suggest to him, hey why not wait and try to shoot something bigger.... without it being viewed as cramming thier views down his throat. That's all I'm saying.

I spent my entire hunting life shooting the first buck to walk by because that's what I was supposed to do. I spent several seasons only hunting a couple weeks and for the longest time I NEVER experienced the thrill and excitement of hunting during the rut cause I was tagged out. I finally went against my teachings and started waiting on a buck that I want to shoot and in the mean time, shoot as many does as I can. My enjoyment and experience has gotten so much better since doing so. So if I can enourage other guys in my position to try passing on some smaller bucks and get a little more enjoyment out of thier hunting, I think its worth it.

I am by no means looking for people to "help" get my buck. I don't pass on little ones in hopes that they will grow up, I pass on them because I am waiting for the bigger ones I already know exist.
