Immature bucks get a pass from me regardless of the date in the season. My primary goal is a mature buck and opening day ifI think he'll score 160" ish I'll drop the pin.

Last year, I got a doe as my first deer. This year, the goal is a buck. If one shows himself and it has a visible antler, I'll take the shot. Once the antler threshold is crossed, I'll start thinking about what bucks to pass up.

I would prefer a tender young doe and leave the bucks for my neighbors who are after big racks, so I generally pass on all bucks anyway.

WKP, you're a stronger man than me. That deer would be at the taxidermist right now. If you've got bigger deer running around, I'd sure love to see them.
