I would agree with hoghunter I would hunt in a place that allows you to harvest more deer.

Well 130 class is not a bad deer imho, but I would much rather take one dandy then multiple deer.

Well I don't know about you guys, but I hunt in west virginia where there arn't a lot of big deer but you can only get 2 bucks (have to buy an additional stamp for 1 of them) and our (gun) season is only 2 weeks long.

I'd go with more deer! I like the meat, and in some places, taking a good 130 class buck may be as hard or harder than taking 160's in another area!
