I think the good old days have gone due to all of us not having as much time as we would like to spend in the woods and become better woodsmen and gals. Food plots bring the deer to us and the trail cams keep us from chasing ghosts or lesser animals if your into the big rack thing. For me I do it I guess old school because I can't afford trail cam theft and I simply am content with meat only if it has to be a doe only year. We all would like a nice Buck to happen by but if not that's O.K. with me,others I understand are Mature Buck hunters and I understand that desire. The Mature Bucks are a great challenge I'm sure and require great kills to get,even the young ones can be tough at certain times during the season. Getting a deer without all those helps is my way,others use everything they can afford to get the advantage. To each his own is the American way in the end.
