Default Peaks homework assignment for you

Here is my situation and I am bow hunting with 35 acres to work with.
Half is wooded and half is corn until about early Oct. Season opens
Sept 15th.


I am in a Chronic wasting DiseaseUnit of Wisconsin that will be earn a buck this year. You have to kill a doe before you can kill a buck.
I have a 160 inch plus buck and a doe in front of me and I have yet to shoot a doe. Do I shoot this doe and have the buck aware now where my stand is? Do I passthis upand be patient?

2nd Senario:
Now I have a 125-130 inch buck in doe do I shoot the doe?

Thanks,
Tony

LMAO, I told my sons if they did good in school I would have a mohawk for a day. Way to avoid the question.

I personally would never shoot a Doe in front of a buck, talk about ruining a perfectly good stand set up. Granted, there may be the chance that it wouldn't mess up the stand but it certainly wouldn't be a chance I'd be willing to take, regardless of the size of the buck standing with the Doe.

The smaller buck maybe. The big buck def. no for me. i guess if you grow em that big you would have enough time to figure out the smaller buck by the time he is a big one.

I dont think you understood the question.

If I shoot the doe the buck is gone and will remember not to come near that stand I believe again.

Ya but its still illegal to kill the buck first right? What if the doe runs away, then you have no buck sticker.
