[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5635720, member: 17"] Henry, Going through some of my pictures, here's some examples of what you don't want to shoot: The first two pictures are 2 1/2 year-old 10-pointers. You definitely don't want to shoot 2 1/2 year-old 10-pointers. Neither of these bucks score high, but they show tremendous potential. Most mature 10-pointers weren't 10-pointers at 2 1/2. The second two pictures are high-scoring 3 1/2s. Both of these bucks need protecting (if high-scoring bucks is your management goal). The first one scored right at 140, the second probably high 140s to pushing 150. I know the first buck scored right at 140 because I killed him! Again, my place isn't managed for peak score, just entertaining hunting. And I would have shot that 2nd 3 1/2 year-old buck in a heartbeat if I had seen him. [/QUOTE]
