All this talk about venison has got me thinking ......

Let's say the herd got in a bad way and the situation was such that you either had to eat tag soup (not have ANY type of venison) for a year, or shoot a small buck, what would you do??? Please don't add your own spin on things like, "I would move" or anything like that ......simple question ... curious as to your thoughts....

I'd shoot the best dang small buck I could

I don't eat antlers. I would go for the venison (in whatever form).

That's an easy one there Tony.......I'm shooting. Then again.......I don't need those circumstances to make my decision either.

Tag soup for me.I haven't killed a buck with my bow since 02 and I'm still holding out.[]

My herd doesn't even have a problem and I make this decision every year.

I've yet to find a recipe of any kind for tag or antler soup...

Unless I'm paying high dollar for a hunt ( which won't happen in this lifetime)I'll fill a tag before I try to get my name in any books...

I would eat tag soup. I dont rely on vennison and dont have a family to feed so i could go a year without it. Plusi have plenty of people who would hook me up with some vennison if i needed some.

Me as well Recurver! I've had tag soup many times, 4 years straight was my worst stretch. Never will I shoot a small buck unless he's older and isn't showing any signs of potential.

As you asked Venison in my freezer, because I am a deer hunter any deer will do, especially when there is hunting pressure.
I'd love to add more but you asked us not too!
