if u don't see a deer all year and u see a big doe at the end of the year u going to take her ....//////
Waiting to fill your freezer is something I cant do. I try to shoot a doe at the first opportunity. Then feel my freezer with delicious venison. Then immediately comes the jerky. Now its time to relax and hunt for my racked buck.
I hunt for meat first, feel my cravings and tastebuds
Then relax and hunt for the racks
One cannot truly be a trophy hunter without also being a "m-e-a-t" hunter; for to produce the best possible trophies, doe's must be shot to keep the herd numbers in balance. I hunt according to quality deer management principles which involves being both. Anyway, in my state I am unable to "fill my freezer" with a small buck and then hold out for a wallhanger later...only one buck per year per hunter in Kansas.
big big rack hunter all the way can't seem to make myself shoot a doe very often unless i am some type of management hunt or something like that.heck it doesn't really matter on want you hunt as long as your deer hunting.
