well I agree its funny how many hunters look at deer, so any deer is a target and other target certian deer
like I said, I leave the off color deer be, due to I like to see how long they can make it, they stand out making it way esier and accurate to keep tabs on them, and I also like to see what offspring they can produce
my yrs of just to fill the freezer have long passed, I now think I hunt more for the being outdoors, rather than caring if I kill a deer at all
we all change over time I think
25 yrs ago, I would never have thought I would have let a legal deer walk, and now, I let more bucks walk a yr, than I seen in the first 5 yrs I hunted, and many are very nice sized too!
growing older changes the out look and goals of people I think, or maybe its cause I killed a couple hundred deer over the yrs?? LOL
who know's
