You guys have eased my mind. I grew up rifle hunting private land. My dad preached wall hangers only, so naturally I thought that killing small bucks was bad. I didn't kill a buck the first 4 years I hunted because we were "trophy hunters". I killed a basket rack 6 point finally in when I was 15 because I was tired of not being able to shoot it unless it was a "wall hanger".
I think I've gotten stuck in that mindset again, but this time I'm bow hunting public land. I need to quit looking at the rack and just kill what gets me all jazzed up. Like
@dlist777 said, hunting should be fun.
Might have to change my username tho ...
