On the farm we try to pass all 1.5 year olds and younger.
87yr old gramps gets a pass on the above rule and shoots whatever he wants, he’s earned it.
Occasionally we have friends/family that have never hunted or haven’t ever gotten a buck. They also get a pass to shoot whatever they want for their first deer.
On public I’m shooting whatever gets me excited, so pretty much anything bigger than a spike, and depending on the time of year and gags left, a spike lol. I’ll usually pass on does in/around the rut because you never know when a buck is around the corner.
After the 2 week gun season is over, the does become target numero uno until the 2nd rut kicks up.
