When I hear a guy saying that he’s shot 6 170” whitetails I automatically think

A) he’s hunting a good area, must own lots of land or have good permission
Big deer don’t grow on trees
B) also have to be a good shot and quick on the draw. Time is critical
C) your willing to bend the rules to get a big deer

I could be wrong, but that’s come to my mind.
If seen a lot of big deer hit the ground, and I’ve seen a lot of big deer get away

I’ve got A, B had gotten better, but enough of C for 6 170” whitetails for me
