RE: Passin the Buck
Atlas I know you like to argue so regardless of anything anyone says you'll find a way to state the opposite or twist to mean something never intended.
I never said a couple does is enough for everyone, heck its only me and my girlfriend here and two deer would get us no where. I don't care that you group shoots tons of deer to feed tons of people, that's cool, but it isn't part of the arguement here.
There is a difference between looking for a challenge and pulling off the impossible. Voluntary QDM across a broad range of hunting areas is hardly handing people big bucks on a platter. It can turn what seemed like an effort into futility into something someone can try for if they work hard enough. Never will it turn into a strictly managed "farming" ranch where you are taking your pick of monster bucks. So please, the arguement that getting a few people to pass on smaller bucks will create a mature buck filled woods for us greedy trophy hunters is laughable.
