You cannot kill big bucks by filling your tags with does and little bucks
You cannot kill a deer from your stand if you aint in it (meaning huntin the wind, the rain, the heat etc)
In contrast you in most cases have to shot does, to get the population in check. Hunting mature deer will be hard when you see 20 does to one buck.
Hunt the wind. I don't care if your garments say your scent free. You are not, unless you are in a bubble. You cannot kill a mature deer today (Not hunting), but your not going to waste your time and ruin hunting on other "better" days. Never hunt a stand with a bad wind.
