RE: What's your area/woods capable of?
The area I hunted in the past had a few that would go P&Y but no booners.
The lease I'm in on this year is in the county that produced two 190 class bucks, both actually broke the old state record. It's very thick, rugged land and the bucks are hard to get to but they are there.

1. Is the area/woods you hunt capable of producing P&Y and B&C bucks?
2. Do you believe you have either of them around?
3. If you believe you do not, what's your reasoning?

1- Absolutely not
2- Absolutely not
3- Hunters around here are idiots. During gun season it's "pray an spray" all day, I don't go out the first few days. They shoot anything and everything that walks by. No management at all, population is very low. Add coyotes to the mix and it sucks. Also, any bucks with good genes have been taken, so they cant spread their seed. And, no bucks are given the chance to grow up an mature, they are all taken at 1 1/2 to 2 1/2.
SUUUUUUCKS!!!

1. Yes to both
2. A few P&Y around each season, a booner maybe once every 5 years or longer.
3. Too much hunting pressure keeps the booners at bay. We have good genetics, but the odds of a pre-programmed booner living long enough to reach that levelare pretty small.
