[QUOTE="ElkStalkR, post: 2413142, member: 2292"] The rules for my place west of Stillwater are fairly simple. We shoot all the does we want, within the state limits of course, and pass on bucks that aren't at least main frame 5x5's and 16 inches wide. Basically if we can get them into the 130 class my hunters are happy and really 130" plus deer isn't that easy to comeby in that area. I believe we have taken 4 bucks that meet that standard in the last 5 years. Occassionally there are exceptions to this rule, when we get a buck on camera for 2-3 years that just doesn't appear to be growing we will go ahead and take him. We also have a wive's and kid's rule. Basically they get out so little and usually are thrilled to shoot anything, so we let them shoot whatever they want, no restrictions. Also I feel as hunters get more accustomed to shooting "bigger" bucks they will eventually start letting 130's walk to see if a 150-160 steps out. Gonna take several years, but it will start to happen. [/QUOTE]
