We try not to shoot any under 150, that eliminates worrying about counting points. Any eight pointer that you have trouble seeing if it's legal, you need to let go anyway.

The problem people have with NR in Mo. is the fact that we are bordered by states that are nearly impossible to draw a tag, while we take in them all. Our farm is on the line, and we have numerous places we could hunt in Ia, as farmers own land on both sides.....except we can't get a tag. Meanwhile in our county, the roads are patrolled by legions of out of state road hunters as well as serious hunters.

We manage our doe kill and bucks, still have good numbers and good trophies on our land.
