Default What to do for the last hunt?

Thursday is the last day of the season and I plan on going out but I can't decide on what to do. I haven't seen any deer activity in a couple of weeks(public ground) but I have seen alot of turkey just not close enough to shoot.

So the question is should I move in on the turkey and hopefully get my first one with a bow or I could go to an area where I found a trailsaturday that is the most used trail I've ever seen. I feel more confident in the turkey but I'd really like another deer.
What would you do?

I should have given you more info. It's easier to get on the turkeys only 1/2 mi walk and the deer trail is 1 1/4 mi walk, it'svery hard to get into,it's up and down some very steephills not your typical flat Illinois.And I've never been able to get on the turkey in the evening. I'm Very undecided!

Just let nature go its course, you'll know which one you want, if the chance even presents itself.

I would personally go for the deer, being that it's the last day for you to hunt deer! You have more turkey time!

You got to keep trying for the deer until you can't. Once you connect, you will be SO happy that you did.
