In reply to yeah_na_missed this is my 2c. In many parts of the country you're dead right. However, some parts carry minimal numbers and locals might not be too happy with this approach. Horses for...

I think all hunters no matter you're experience level van benefit from "sharpening the stone" shooting deer, specifically hinds. In my opinion it's fine to be holding out for that dream stag but...
