it is actually more fun to shoot a target than kill a deer.over years i have left many deer go because they had fawn with them or were eating flowers in open field .thats why i hunt bucks only, more of challenge.but now, i have not seen to many bucks do to the doe reduction program here in pa.it used to be about 5 bucks for every 3 hunters now its 1 buck for maybe 50 hunters or more.doe numbers here in wmu 2g are down around 5 deer per mile and some areas its no deerper mile. sad, boy did we have great hunting here in wmu 2g in past.now, its all coyotes.take care
