If I want to shoot mature bucks I will, on a lease that manages for it.
If I want to shoot anything I "feel" like, I will hunt my property.
If I am unhappy with any of the above I will change it. I don't need anyone to tell me what/ how to do anything if I don't want.
If I live in unit b and can't kill enough does I will get in my truck and drive to unit l.
If tn does not provide what I am looking for in hunting/ fishing I will find one that does, but I sure as heck won't spend countless hours complaining about it.
I have a list as long as my arm of things to do. I have NO time to complain. Bottom line for me is, TWRA has managed the deer heard better than my killing skills. If you have a wall full of good bucks you have my attention if you don't well........
Here here! Good post Rich!

But I can't stand trophyism and the attitude that goes along with it. NOW I can understand where you're coming from. You don't mind trophy hunting, but you mind the attitude that can sometimes come with it. I can agree with that. 
Exactly. Some of the very best hunters I know--that have skills I greatly admire and knowledge I listen to--are trophy hunters. Yet they "do their thing" and let other hunters do theirs. They don't put anyone down for the way they hunt or what they want out of their hunting experience, and certainly don't demand other hunters be limited so they personally can have the trophy experience they want. What's not to respect about that?
But these trophyists and their whiney, unrealistic demands...
Very tiresome...

That information was there for all to see. No group involved.

i will glady drive to unit l to shoot does if you got somewhere for me to shoot some That is my point. Everyone wants someone else to do something for them. Plenty of land out here for you to hunt, you just may have to work for it....yourself.

I live in unit B and my wall went full years ago and the Garage walls are almost full too! LOL I love the hunting for mature bucks in TN and have for several years now. I could care less what anybody else shoots, I like the 3 buck limit, and I have realistic expectations. And guess what, Im probably a trophy hunter, as I dont shoot young/small bucks!!! I will agree with much of the above, quit complaining and learn how to hunt, the rest will take care of itself!!
