Some folks are just crazy about killing bucks. Any buck at all really. And if shooting a 6 pt or a smaller framed 8pt absolutely makes their season.... then you know what.... I think thats awesome. I really don't have a desire to harvest them myself, so I'll happily leave them for someone who views them as a trophy, or perhaps they'll make it until next year when they might make my eye brows go up.

You can only kill a deer once.... in my opinion, I'd like to kill him when he's big.... otherwise he is just a doe with potential. You only get three buck tags a season in VA.... and you can pretty much shoot as many does as you like. I whack does with much prejustice.... but I like to let the smaller bucks go.
