I shoot bucks that make me happy too, but it takes a mature buck with 140+ inches of bone on his head to do it. I might kill a lesser buck if he's a good one and clearly 5+. I don't have to kill anything to enjoy the hunt.
I'm looking for a buck that will make it into my top three and my current number 3 is over 130. I checked cameras yesterday and had a big 6 that is at least 5, he'll be on next years hit list.
It's a year round process for me, I was on the tractor today, planting season is right around the corner. To each his own, I'm getting old and I thank the Lord I'm still in the game
