re: Hunting Club - Buck restrictions?

When I was younger my dad was in a club that had 8 point rule. Shooting 2 year 8s like its going out of style, and there was a 5+ yr old 6 that was off limits and no one could ever get a kid on him. You should shoot age class, but I tend to shoot what gets me excited. I have let better deer walk and end up shooting something not as nice because of how the hunt played out. Last year killed a really nice 2 yr old 8 that I shouldn't have, but got caught up because of an encounter earlier in hunt. He came to grunt call, and I made the decision to shoot too soon after I saw tine length and width, completely failed to judge body. Little disappointing but still a hunt I wont forget!
