When i am hunting here in my home state ( NC ) i shoot all deer that get into my effective range , but last season i went on my first outta state hunt in Ohio ( public land ) and took a 147 inch 12 point at 37 yards. that deer dressed out at 240 lbs he had a
19 3/8 inch inside spread and is now listed in the POPE & YOUNG RECORD BOOK. all i can say about limit , it is what ever makes the hunter happy .

On public lands I try to estimate the age and take anything over 3.5 years of age (for a buck). Back home in Ohio I look for spread and mass and pass up any bucks that still have milk on their lips.

Well I'm only on my forth year of hunting and I have shot 4 bucks, so I'm still not that picky. While huting I've only seen probably 10-12 bucks in my life so I shot a good amount of them At this point in my life I shoot any deer with antlers. After I get a dozen or so bucks under my belt I wil start to get picky.

Good mass and tine length... the spread is not that critical to me if these two factors are present. I prefer a mature buck over a youngster that has a nice rack. I try hard to let the ones with potential go... unless it's a good buck on the last day.
