RE: Who is hutning and Earn-A-Buck zone ?
Yes, 14 and 9.
Same property? Yes Same stand sites? No How about you? Are you switching properties to get a doe? I know my buddy will be, but he has a spot that is infested with does and gets boogered up by other guys pretty quick. |
RE: Who is hutning and Earn-A-Buck zone ?
Well I'm probably sure you already know this, but I am and no I'm hunting two different spots for bucks and does.

RE: Who is hutning and Earn-A-Buck zone ?
I hunt in VA and we have just started the earn a buck in many counties this year. Ive been doing this on my properties for years so it wont change a thing for me. If i were you though I would try to get does out on the same property you buck hunt, believe it or not, too many does can hurt you. In the rutbucks dont have run around and search as much, and the food becomes less, restricting growth. Properties we clear the does out on always fair better for larger bucks and better rut activity.

Im hunting zones 9 and 13, both earn a buck. In the past i have used certain stands for bucks only, but last year i wacked them when ever i got the chance, didnt effect my buck sightings at all.

In 14 I hunt both public and private. I don't know where I'll be yet. On opening day I'll be filming on in zone 7 I think.
Our plan is similar to yours. There isa stand where there are a ton of doe pics, so we plunk a doe there, check her in, and then go to one of the spots where there are more buck pics. |

At first, I thought that was what VA was going to do. BUT...I learned I can kill a buck first as long as I kill a doe before my second buck. Do the other states work in this manner? |

A lot of us WI boys are EAB. A good portion of the lower third of the state is EAB.

I primarily hunt in NOVA. How ever i do have a place in Franklin County too over by the lake. Its nice that VA lets you get a buck first. In NOVA we have urban archery which opens Saturday, doe's only. I figure ill get a doe then before Oct. |

RE: Who is hutning and Earn-A-Buck zone ?
I hunt EAB here in WI, but i got a doe last year so if i see a buck this year i can stick him considering the tages carry-over.
