[QUOTE="MS_Strut, post: 5814131, member: 22863"] This isn't a knock on anyone or this particular thread at all. It just happens to be the one I asked my question in. Very well may be something I can learn here and that is why I am asking. I understand wanting to only take mature bucks. But I don't understand the obsession to try to age a deer on here. Am I missing something about aging these deer? Is it just a management thing or what? I honestly couldn't care less about a deer's age. If he's a shooter for me he's getting something flung at him. I'm not brown is down. I'm also stuck hunting public land so I feel like a mature buck at least is very unlikely to come across. I let a few fork horns walk this year. Only to see one of them getting loaded up by some old man a few weeks later. Just part of it I guess. It made me realize there is no way I can "manage" while hunting public. Still doesn't make me want to take one just because someone else probably will though. Maybe a kid will take it or it might get hit by a car. [/QUOTE]
