Allright, heres the deal...Here in Northern Mi our muzzleloading season opens tomorrow. Due to work, the new house, wife's new job and schedule, and the new baby ( I know excuses, excuses!) I still have my combo deer tag. The combo allows for either any buckand aDoe with a BOW(it is also late archery) OR one "any buck" and one 4pts per side Restricted Buck with firearm/muzzleloader. I have a sweet spot lined up for this weekend, at least i know there are deer there. What should I do??? Take the bow and whack a doe or try for a muzzleloader buck this weekend and hope they stay around for bow later on???

I feel ya Carp. I am in the EXACT same situation. I am taking the bow and video camera out. If I see abuck out of range he is just as good on video tape (though I may be kicking myself ) I would, just almost, rather shoot a doe with a bow, than a buck with a gun though. Good luck on whichever you choose. Let's see the results!
