I am not going to pass on any buck because it is my first year.

any legal buck. which in most of my areas has to be 4+ 1"+ long points to a side. if that happens to be a 10" wide basket rack 8pt opening morning, well...he is meeting my muzzy if i have anything to do about it. i only ever killed 2 scrappy 6pts with a rifle and 8 or so does. it will most likely be my first bow kill too so i aint gunna be tooo picky so long as hes legal. funny i seen some nice illegal bucks last season...just hope they made it..

other areas i hunt have a 3pt or more restriction..but most of them at 4pt or better to a side..if im hunting one of the 3pt areas i will take a legal buck there as well...

A good size 6pt is my trophy. Like the buck I killed last year in muzzleloader.

I don't consider myself a trophy hunter by any means , I hunt for the meat but I do have an eight point rule.
I believe in that " let'm go to let grow " thing , it's my personel choice so I let the young small racks go.
If I get a nice main frame eight point or better within bow range , my arrow is flying.

my most recent buck was 115 to 120, with a rifle. that was two years ago, and since then ive been holding out for something bigger or really close to it. ive had a few border line small eight point baskets walk by since then, i was just in the wrong mood to shoot them. after a two year drought, if i have ANY eight point walk by within bow range im smokin him. rifle my limit remains around 120.
