What if you have adult members without kids and they want the meat? Not a bad idea but not applicable in my club.
I just want to lessen the button buck mistakes and if you shoot a deer under.... what?... 40 lbs or 50 lbs, (attempting to place a sensible weight cut off), there is a better than a 50% chance, it's a button buck. So... why take that chance?
Just want some feedback on lbs requirements. If someone brings in a rather large button buck or bone barely above the hairline, I understand that this mistake can happen but I am irritated when such young and/or small deer are shot for does and they're button bucks. My thinking.... "Don't shoot such small or young deer!" Am I incorrect in my view here?
