 like one other posters rule that each member needs to shoot a doe before a buck.


I wish we could adopt that rule. We have 25 members, 3 stands each on 2000 acres. Some members have multiple memberships which cuts down on pressure. We are allowed 1 doe per membership and only kill 5 does a year because nobody wants to kill them. My brother saw 28 does in one hunt. We can't kill decent bucks because the bucks can basically stand up from their bed and breed.

We only had about 15 deer killed this year and the rut is already gone after 3 weeks in November. They want it to be a trophy club but let all the does walk.

That’s why I’m a proponent of shooting does before the rut: draw the bucks out

They’ll never consistently shoot big deer or effective manage a herd without hammering the does

Have a baw weekend on opening weekend, shoot does until you run out of bullets, and hunt bucks the rest of the year
