I'd like to see QUANTITY deer management. I could really care less about antlers or bagging a buck that scores a lot of B&C points. I just want venison in my freezer. I'd be just as happy to shoot a smallish doe (if it were legal) as I would a 200+ lb 14 point monster.
Does anyone else have a similar mentality, or am I alone in my meat hunting ways?
Don't get me wrong, I have absolutely no problem with people who are after a nice rack. I would just prefer a high chance of getting any deer to a slight chance of getting a trophy deer.
I understand what you mean. And QTY vs Quality is a personal choice.
But I don't know any deer hunter just as happy to shoot a smal doe as they would a 14 point buck
Actually, the best tasting venison I've ever had was from a very small doe taken during bow season. It was like free range veal.
