Back off, Brother. I was not critisizing you or asking for agreement from anyone. I was just stating the fact that you can shoot what you want and so can I. CHILL OUT! Man,.. don't be so defensive. Stay safe

Yeah. Whatever. Good luck with that.

LMAO! no,no nerve struck,just wonderig if we are talking about the same rack here.... I was talking about the antlers,and you?????

@ glockcop,anything old enough to have antlers that large is tough meat,and not really what I want to put o the table.

Crash, has somebody been in Paw Paws medicine again? Or is it time to

? Too many people wear their feelings on their sleeves. Lighten up a little. I posed a sarcastic question with the intent for a friendly rebuttle but you obviously took it to heart. I expressed my "opinion" and that is all it is. Stay safe.

Do "I" have to have the last word? To quote you in that thread, "NO"

. Stay safe, Brother.

Tough meat is no problem for me. God gave me a full set of teeth and I know how to use 'em. Besides I make tough venison into sausage.

Stay safe.

I also am a "only shoot what you intend to eat" kind of hunter, so I don't shoot squirrels, prairie dogs, or even rabbits, unless they are eating my garden.

But on the other hand, I would have taken that trophy in a heart beat, given the chance.
Already save several dandies,but not like THAT.

Little deer grow into big deer, so they pass, does are shot only to fill the freezer.
That just how it is, not for everyone, I agree.

Most of the people I know (personally) that shoot small bucks, does, etc, will take most anything that walks by, not wanting to put in the time or effort, to score a trophy.
They are the ones that say they are meat hunters.

So, y'all do what ever seems right to you, as I will.

well said Hunter63

!!! IN MY OPINION, that sums it up nicely, especially the "not willing to put in the time and effort to score a trophy" part. IN MY OPINION "most", I said "most", strickly meat hunters are not skilled enough to be choosey on their game and kill what they can. For anyone listening, this is just MY OPINION and not meant to be antagonistic toward anyone's hunting practices or ethics. If this trammels anyone's "feelings" I respectfully and genuinely am sorry. I hope everyone has a personally fulfilling hunting season whatever your reason to be in the woods. Yall take care.

I would definately take that rack. Yeh, Rick! You da man! Hope to find one like that in the woods this year. You meat hunters may be onto something. I am of course talking about the deer. OK, the four legged one. Shhhh....my wife is listening.

Yall take care.

What's the trophy holding the dead deer for?? I couldn't mount either, the wife would kill me. No trophies on my walls I am sure my rear would feel like 30lbs of raw hamburger if I had either mounted.
