[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5668291, member: 2805"] Agreed. Back in the day 'success' was measured on whether you could actually kill the allotted 11 bucks annually... the closest I ever got was 8 bucks in one season... and I still didn't feel like it was a successful season... several of my friends killed 9 or 10 bucks. The first few years after the limit reduction, it was all about killing the biggest antlered deer in the area. Some times I did, sometimes I didnt... but I was going to take 3 (then 2 after limit reduced further) bucks every year Maybe it's the limit reduction or maybe just because I'm older, but I now feel it's been a great year if I kill just ONE mature buck a year, regardless of antler score. I haven't gone buckless since 1987, but I suspect if/when that happens again, it won't hurt my feelings one bit. [/QUOTE]
