Awesome video 👍. Its almost impossible to see a buck mature in my area. There's way too many hunters.

I hear you man you aren't loosing me as a sub

Disagree. The hunter killing the lesser/younger buck is not any less of a hunter that kills a mature 5yr+ buck. I have seen deer hunting evolve for the past 38 years, and I personally don't care for the direction it is heading. All about the horns?? If that's what y'all want.. do it. Just don't tell others how to hunt. Conservation? Brother we are all hunters... deer hunters. Be proud of what ever deer ya shoot... as long as it is legal. If ya measure success by inches, you should be a yard stick maker, not a deerhunter.

Amen brother. Preach!

Fair argument. I'm in rural Canada where there is piles of crown and lease land, and where the government is doubling tags to combat cwd, so not sure it applies where overpopulation threatens the herd. But in heavily hunted areas, totally agree.

Wish i could subscribe more than once. Another great video sir.

I have been waiting for your posted video ❗️

Excellent outlook to have!!! I follow that same motto.

Welp, I just subscribed. Very true. It took me years of hunting to stop shooting the first deer that walked out.

I understand, but when you have a hi game fence, it’s pretty easy to let bucks grow and get big cause their trapped

Great presentation! If you just need venison, shoot a doe and let the juvenile bucks live.

What camera do U use?

Well put bud....well put ......👍🏽

Great presentation, I kicked my hunters off my lease cause he killed a 2 1/2 year old 5 point with less than a 13" spread 😠

Hope you are well. Waiting for new videos, patiently....

Good job!!!

I’m not unsubscribing that’s for sure!

I see your points for a ranch that bucks can grow old and you have a good chance of seeing them year and year again, But for a hunter that’s hunts in Ohio and Pennsylvania and hunts on mostly public land( no private farmland or anything) you have to shoot younger bucks at 2-3 because there’s a really good chance you are not going to see them again. I still skip on yearlings and if there really small but you got to do what you got to do to fill the freezer. Just a view from a different hunter in a different place. No lost sub here though👍

Is this the same guy that took a neck shot a huge buck?

Your 100 percent right.

Thanks for that

Coming from the channel that put a 7mm mag right through a deers neck at 50 yards and missed the second shot when it stood perfectly still after being shot

Iv gone 8 years without shooting deer for the reason being they weren’t mature enough but I’m bout tired of seeing an empty freezer. True what another person commented on here if I don’t shoot it the neighbors will. And I only have 50 acres to work with down in brownwood were it’s heavily populated with hunters.

Haven’t seen you at all on PPLF

Gained a sub here.

I don’t “trophy hunt” anymore. On my land I hunt for meat, so I’ll only take a doe during bow or muzzle loader season. A 1.5 to 2 year old doe is the best meat especially compared to an old buck IN RUT! A couple times a year during farm hunts when everything is antler-less, a buck is good but still not as good as a doe! IMHO I still go sit in my stands or blinds and watch the herds and will cull and old fellow when he needs to be or will let someone hunt my property for him. I just don’t like the meat and don’t want to deal with hanging and aging them anymore. We haven’t had cold enough winters to dry hang outdoors, in quite a few years. We seem to always have a week that temps will get up in the 70s and I don’t have a refrigerated hang room. So the years I’ve taken a mature buck I have always end up having to process him early. Maybe after only a week or 2 of hanging.

We really need to let the bucks breed

You also have to understand most people hunt public land .....and if a father and son walk miles through hunter pressured mountains to even see deer movement at all ....I think they should harvest what they can legally. If my dad went by your standards growing up I would have never learned to hunt deer. We would walk 3+miles in and most of the time no see any bucks. The legal bucks we saw went in our freezer. But we worked hard for those deer. I now have my own land and don’t have to track miles through the woods and can hunt from the comfort of a blind or stand .....I only shoot mature animals in fact I killed only does last year I passed on the bucks in had. I see your point for private land for sure.

Keyword "ranch". Not everyone has one of those. I totally get what you're saying. I'm pretty sure if everyone had property to maintain herds then their thought process would be like yours. But when you spend money to be able to hunt. You barely see deer at all. Then you will have a the mindset of killing a reasonable size deer (2.5 years+) to harvest. I understand both sides because I stay near a heavily populated area where its survival of the fittest around here. Where harvesting a deer is achievement. Not trophy hunting.

Where’s the new videos buddy haven’t seen any or on social media

0:50 Is it smart to shot a deer in the neck??

Yall should make new vids already.

The 6 dislikes must shoot spikes.

Como pode mano, aqui no Brasil è crime até policial andar armado kkkk

Big bucks mean nothing but a nice decoy on your wall and a few more pounds of meat, that's why I don't in the least bit care if small bucks are taken (for meat anyway).

I love this. Criticizing people who shoot young deer, yet you guys shot a mature one in the neck.

IAM not going unsubscribe!! But if I don't shoot it the nabers will they do it ever time I pass a buck !! And I shoot spikes button bucks and it doesn't hurt the hurd at all !! And u said ranch that nothing close to what we have in VA if u don't like me o well it's not up to u to judge me as it's not my job to judge u!! And only time I judge trophy hunters is the sobs that shoot them for there head and dumps the meat !! Keep up great viedos tho

I hunt for the meat in way north wisco we shoot first buck we see because if we don't the wolves will have them.

Where is the government about this despicable killing?

I stopped shooting young deer when I was 13

At least the people unsubscribing from you aren’t hunting a petting zoo

That good if you’re going for the monster buck ... Don’t get me wrong I like to see other come out with those monster bucks... But for me I kill deer to eat and not for the rack ... So a nice filled out buck or doe... keeps the freezer filled.... To each his own!!!

You just not shooting a deer you shooting a coyote

Shoot what makes you happy and don’t give a crap what other people think about it you payed for the tag

Antler Porn Disease is What it is!! Gotta have a Chubb over shooting a mega rack! Never found a Good Recipe for Antler Soup! If you want to do that on your land have at it! If your land is within a 5 mile circle of the Farm I help on....first legal buck dies & same for Antlerless! Costs us to much in crop damage! We would rather eat that nice tastey meat then see our crops go bye bye in the summer & not make any $$ just to get a Chubb out of a big rack

You didn't lose me

if I unsubscribe itll be for shitty shooting. not your deer management program. that being said, what would you tell the man that has one day to hunt all year that sees nothing but spikes? waste his money? his time? If youre going to post this you need to actually research the science. Studies show that 2.5 year old spikes rarely get over 120". 2.5 year old forks, sixes and eights however, produce much better antler growth.

Great that you have all of these hunting opportunities but for those of us putting meat on the table with a one-time shot, I’ll shoot a doe, spike, young or old buck and eat thank you... but perhaps you’re directing your message to that privileged few who get to be selective...

Did you fall off the face of the earth???

Why do you people kill these dumb animals? Will I get the same answer?

It’s easy to say when you own land and can afford to let them get that big. And you should focus more on ethical shots because the other video I seen on your channel was a very unethical and irresponsible way of harvesting a deer.
