A trophy is different in everybodies eyes! As long as it is legal and you are happy with it thats all that matters.

For me, if I'm after meat I take a doe. I also feel this helps the herd overall and will keep the big boys moving during the rut looking for the does. I want to let the young bucks grow and hopefully meet their potential. Where I hunt there is a great deal of QDM, so, the boys have a greater chance of meeting their potential. I am primarily a bowhunter, and, I truly believe any animal taken with a bow is a trophy. I don't try to impose my feelings on anyone else, but, when asked this is how I answer this question.

I keep trying to let them go and grow, but I just settled on these!
