Something you've probably NEVER thought from stand...
I catch myself.....now....when I see a deer approaching.....thinking....."I hope it's a doe".
Granted....I can already tell by the body size....that it's NOT a buck I'm interested in.....and I am targeting does (and not young bucks). I'd rather have a deer I'm actually interested in taking come in.....so that's what I've caught myself thinking as of late.
Weird, huh?.....

I don't think that's weird. I also think it is pretty cool when you see a deer that you know you're not going to shoot at. No pressure, just sit back and watch, and enjoy.

No problem here either, shooting a mature doe isn't easy!!!!! I put myself on Doe trails all Pre/Rut last season hoping to shoot a Doe! I went days only seeing bucks that never offered a shot! I was kinda bummed I didn't see a giant Doe!
