Millertime,

Thanks for the support and I totally agree with what you said.


Jody,

Did I put in for McA for a chance to shoot a buck? HELL YA I did. Im sorry if thats wrong in your eyes. Will I shoot a doe if opportunity exists....HELL YA I will. Im not going to turn down an opportunity to help control the population. If I dont get a buck, will I be pissed and moaning/groaning till i die, throwing away my gear and crying in my beer, HELL NO! Thats life and THATS hunting.

Sure, Ive bowhunted a very short time and had decent success. However, I hunted for 6 yrs before I got my first deer and that was hunting with both a muzzleloader and a rifle.I simply found a gauranteed trail, put up a stand, and it delivers. I dont hunt it rifle because i dont want to shoot a deer w/a 7mm at 15yds.

So why did i put in for McA? It mainly was for the challenge, change of pace, new surroundings, new scenery, and secondly yes, the opportunity to shoot a buck.

As for pre-hunt qualifying, no there are no rules in place. But the ethical hunter wont do what your saying (buy friday - hunt sunday). I know my limits and will adhear to them.
