Of passing on small bucks all season long, then shooting one of the same small bucks late in the season? I dont get it! I hear many people say" Well I had a tag to fill and its late season". Let the animal grow! Shoot a doe! IMO.

This is because people expect to see a bigger buck and in early season they figure they have time. Then when late season comes and they realize they don't have any time, they are upset that they didn't shoot a nuck so they decide to take a little one that they passed on earlier.

Yer entitled to your opinion, and if that's how you choose to hunt, I say more power to ya.....But QDM "practices" can kiss my royal toosh as far as I'm concerned. If it's legal, I'm shooting it. Period.

And to those that say I'm wrong, I say too darn bad.

Well in some places you cant shoot a doe in the late season, you cna only shoot does dring the specified bow season and a weeked in muzzleloader, and on juvenile hunts. If people want to shoot little ones let them, if they shoot little ones, they are obviously meat hunters. Let them do what they want and dont worry about it.

Im not talking QDM. Im talking about the people that will come mid season and say they passed this buck and that buck only to shoot one of those same bucks later on.

I dont have anything against it, but if I set a goal for shooting a big buck, I want to reach my goal and not settle for less. But thats just me.

this is very understandable when the people only get one buck tag, maybe they are holding off for a bigger one and then didnt see a bigger one
