We all hunt for different reasons and with different goals. I don't judge anyone for what they choose to shoot or don't shoot. It sure is not a 'numbers' competition for me.

I hunt for the experience, time spent with family, and pure enjoyment, the meat is a nice bonus.

I try to kill enough deer to feed us for 12 months..then repeat. I had my freezers full by Oct 8 (crossbow is batting 1000) this year with a little extra to give away to some folks in need.

Big bucks are nice, but the worst tasting deer I have ever had was the biggest oldest buck I have shot.

Nothing tastes like a nice tender yearling...I will leave the old tough gamey ones for you guys. =)
