This weekend is opening day, so:

If your hunting a blind that a big buck is coming into fairly regularly, but not every morning, but there are does every single morning, do you:

1. Wait to see if buck shows
2. Take a doe

Most importantly, It's the one and only hunt you'll get all year!


*needs a poll but I don't know how!

Only the person that started the thread can post a poll.

As to the question, shoot a doe, that is better than nothing.

I just gonna play it out. This will be my only hunt this year, and I don't wanna come home empty handed, but I much rather shoot a buck because I have not shot a buck since I was 12

Do you only have one hunt or do you have one weekend to hunt?

If I only had one hunt, I would give it until the doe looked like they were getting ready to leave, then drop one. If I had one weekend, I would wait until the last hunt and drop one.

I have one single hunt. One morning. Been invited to a really nice ranch around shamrock and it will be my one and only oppurtunity this year because I do not have a lease. This is a "bonus" from my awesome boss(his personal ranch) but it will only be this one morning. Haven't even seen a buck since I was 12, shot some doe since then but been venison-less for a long while now.

Shoot the first decent doe. Keep hunting all morning. A dead doe on the ground will not necessarily keep your buck from coming in later.

Can't shoot both. I feel dumb for not mentioning that. Ive thought about it and I think I'm just gonna risk it and try to wait and hopefully shoot the buck that's been coming in often.
