Meat or antlers

RE: Meat or antlers
When in Canada I hunt for antlers, but remember, under the antlers there is also meat. When I hunt in WI I have no problem shooting does for meat. I have no reason to shoot a small buck and throw the spikes in a box when there are plenty of does to kill.

RE: Meat or antlers
I would say I hunt for antlers, mind you I take every bit of meat and such. I don't shoot a doe the first day of the year, nor the 2nd or third. I like to see some horns, but I won't shoot a smaller buck in most areas, I would rather shoot a doe.
