8 points means 8 years of applying and or buying points. Thats a long time to wait to shoot the first legal buck, unless its a monster legal buck. I'd hold out for a big buck if I were in your shoes. Only 30 people get that tag each year. Depending on the year, hunters with that tag average around 30% success and 40-50% are 4 point bucks. Go in there and kill a monster. Here is the harvest data. Good luck!

I see your point. We will see how the hunt goes and what were seeing. I have never been a trophy hunter and its been years since I shot a deer. The last few years has been focusing on my two boys getting their tags filled. This hunt will be for myself so should be fun. Thanks for the info.

Looks like a good tag to spend the points on. Is that a archery only tag?

 

[code3run]
