No More Small Bucks!

RE: No More Small Bucks!
[8D]let this deer grow and in a couple years you will have yourself a nice 120 inch deer. This deer was at LEAST 2.5 maybe older. HUGE body but a tiny dink rack. Not to mention this is the first time I saw this deer, after getting pics of over a dozen other bucks during the summer.

Since we're posting pics of our past hunting season, here's a pic of my 2006-2007 season. Do you have any idea how happy I would have been to get a spike deer? Hunting is a very personal thing and means different things to different people. If you're not happy with a spike, by all means, pass it up. But if someone else gets one, be happy for them. They were successful. I'm not a "youngster", and I've taken a few larger bucks, but if I get a spike, it's a big deal to me. It's a sad day when you can't be happy for someone getting a deer, no matter how small.

The part of the equation that some of these guys miss is the fact that 80 % of the hunters out there get to hunt less than five times per year. They have jobs,kids and families that come before tree time. Many people have physical & age limitations that too limit access and success.
Hunting is many things to many people.
Be thankful that you are afforded the opportunity to pass many bucks in your search foryour "trophy",but too berespectfulto the man that gets to tag his "trophy" within his restraints.
Then check the package I'm sensing you might have some binding taking place.

Whiny, antler obsssedasswipes like you are the biggest reason why hunting is becoming an overpriced sport. It's none of your damned business what other people shoot, get a life or find another hobby. Azzhole...

I pretty much agree with the guy, except to say its not all about 'horn porn'!
What's most important isI want all our deer hunters out there to enjoy their experience. Who am I to decide what another person's 'enjoyment' is?
I enjoy hunting big bucks, eating tasty does, and hanging with hunting friends at deer camp! Your description of deer hunting enjoyment may be different and that's OK by me.
