Really have to agree with you. I am 15 and see about 4-5 deer a year and I hunt about 2-3 times a week, sometimes even more. There are guys in our club that have hunted all their life and have shot some big deer. I have shot about 5 deer in my whole life, even though I never see deer, I WILL NOT shoot a small deer, if a 15 year old that doesn't kill big deer every year pass up small deer, why does a grown man that has hunted all his life shoot a dang spike????
Personally I think it would be frustrating to spend the time, money, and effort to hunt that much and to see no more deer than that. As long as that makes you happy and you feel good about yourself I guess that is all that matters. Just wondering, how much land you have to hunt?
