I'll bite....If it's brown it's down sums it up for me to a point. 90% of the deer I take are does, usually 1.5 year olds or older (I did shoot one 'lil one once at the end of the season).

I like a freezer full. If the deer is legal, get out the wrapping paper. If a doe walks out....I'm shooting. If a meager racked 6 walks out....I'm shooting. If a monster walks out....I'm falling (out of my treestand!!!!!!!). Then I'll shoot.

I think that balance is a good thing. There are plenty of horn hunters letting little bucks go that if I take one, it's no big deal. If we all sit there waiting on 130+ bucks...how many will be left at the end of the season?????

Everyone has (and is entitled to) their own standards. Hunt and let hunt I say. You like big ones....go for it. But please don't chastise those who are not of a like mind. This sport is taking enough shots from anti's without becoming divided from within.
