My question in all this self proclaimed trophy hunting mentality is are ALL aspects on having a TROPHY club followed? Things like do you hunt green field/corn from the first day of the season? Are does shot on greenfields/corn the entire season? Is there continual hunting pressure on the property the whole season? Does the entire club refuse to hunt an area if the area can't be approached with the wind in your face the entire time? etc, etc, etc, to actually have a "Trophy Club" like on TV? If people are wanting places like Lee and Tiffany have and hunt a property only one day during the entire season and nobody else is on the property, then it may work. Does the area you are in have the GENETICS, cover, year round food sources, etc to actually grow more that one 125" buck? How many does are being shot just because the members have paid club dues and almost zero larger than the "minimum" bucks are killed every year. Old mature bucks don't get old and mature by being stupid. Reality sucks,

If a person wants to be a trophy hunter then only hunt trophies, but remember trophies are in the eye of the beholder.
