Why are people SO obsessed with what other people kill. Especially when they have NO idea as to their situation and hunting area.
If I kill every 4 yr old + buck on all my places, or none.......there is not the 1st person on this board that I know of that will be affected by it.
And, due to many factors, including the 3 buck limit and access, there are places that I have that there will not be a deer killed this year. And, guess what, they STILL are not gonna move to areas of more pressure so that someone else can kill them.
Hunt for your own reasons and forget about what others are doing. It will make your hunting much more enjoyable. The greed is consuming some of y'all......
Danny I could not have worded this any better myself. I shoot what make me happy and gives me that adrenalin rush. Granted, it does take a mature deer in most cases to do that. I've been so blessed to kill a lot of deer over my hunting career. I simply don't have the desire to just kill anymore. I have also become lazy and don't care to fool with immature deer.
I use to get wound tighter than an 8 day clock over my neighbors and club members shooting a young buck. It was taking all the fun out of hunting for me to the point it was depressing. I finally said enough is enough and made it a point to not worry about others actions. If they are happy at the end of the day that is all I care about. I do have rules in place on my current leases and I do ask my guys to do their best in judgment when pulling the trigger. Mistakes do happen and none of us are prefect. Deer are a renewable resource it just took me some time to learn that
"Tomorrow is the most important thing in life. Comes to us at midnight very clean. It's perfect when it arrives and it puts itself in our hands. It hopes we've learned something from yesterday."
