I have to admit, "trophy hunters" take a lot of heat on here and I see very few telling anyone what they should shoot. Why do people take things so personal? I see a lot of opinions on here taken as a slap in the face when they're really just someone's opinion. I guess I just see things differently.

Never killed a "big buck", that I didn't eat and enjoy eating it.
Why would "80% of the voting public" have a problem with that?

The problem is terminology. Once you use the word trophy, you change the whole perception of the non-hunting public. Hopefully I won't have to explain that. It has nothing to do with eating the meat.

The word trophy is relative. If you played a game of one on one on the basketball court against a 10 year old and beat him and received a trophy to go on your mantle would you think the same of it as the one you had there for beating Michael Jordon? I doubt it. Both are trophys but one out-trophies the other???? I like trophy bucks. I like hunting for trophy bucks. I will continue hunting for trophy bucks. The rest of the world can hunt whatever they want and piss on political correctiveness. No regrets here.

Not pouncing on you personally Stemwinder, but you must not have been around long! Threads on this site are continuously jammed with posts by frustrated trophy hunters DEMANDING the state change bag limits to force other hunters to shoot less bucks, or antler restrictions to prevent other hunters from killing young bucks so that they personally will have a better chance at a mature buck. These same frustrated trophy hunters denegrate anyone who posts a picture or proudly discusses a buck kill they made if that buck kill doesn't live up to the frustrated trophy hunters standards.
Very, very tiresome.
But you are right that those type of trophy hunters take a lot of heat around here, and deservedly so!
