bea I'm proud of ya!
For some reason there's been a bunch of hesitation about shooting does in my haunts. I don't know WTF is going on with everybody this year. I suppose it might still be early for thinking about shooting does for some but I usually have about 3 on the ground by now. Seems some guru said that shooting does before the rut will "throw things outta whack" . . . it's total bullshit IMO. Anywhoo, I'm going to be getting after them this weekend along with a couple buddies. I'll probably bust a few then. It's been tough to get on them with stick and string this year so now that the thundersticks are legal, things are about to change!
Keep after them, there's always plenty of does in the majority of hunting locales.
