i see it how Rybo sees it.
i have to reinsure i still have permission in an orchard this season. i should...and if i do, i will try to take a doe out early. ONLY because i am not confident i will ever see a legal buck in there in daylight. the deer are highly pressure all around the orchard and dont get old by being stupid. and the apples are best earlier..after a week or 2 of the season the deer dont eat in there much. early on though i feel my chances are highest..figure i might as well take a doe or 2 out if im not going to do much good buck hunting in there.
another thing...if its HOT i wont be out period.
no sense ruining a potential hotspot over a doe. id just like some meat in the freezer and my first bow kill or 2 under my belt so when mr. big horns walks by me im more prepared. dads gettin on me...he wants some sausage this year...i let him down last year
