I wont shoot spots, and I wont shoot 1.5 old bucks, anything other than that will depend on what Ive seen scouting and on trail cam pics.

Any buck that doesn't fulfill my idea of a "nice" buck...ie 130" or so. Fawns don't scare me.

I wont shoot a fawn, mostly because I worry about accidentally taking a button buck. In NY we get a doe tag and an either sex tag and generally the first animal to give me a good, ethical shot, gets the blades. It puts meat in the freezer and takes some of the pressure off, makes it easier to enjoy the rest of the season knowing I already have one down. I don't begrudge anyone who only wants to shoot 3.5 year old and up bucks, but I personally think it takes a little bit of the joy out of the whole experience.

Healthy does and bucks that fulfill my desires will get drilled. All else can walk by and piss on the base of the tree I am hunting out of and still won't get an arrow.

For Bucks: Nothing under what appears to be Pope and Young
For Does: All slick heads are in danger

To each his own, but if I see a giraffe he's mine. I saw this really cool head and neck mount where the neck sticks up out of the floor and the head must have been six feet tall.
