I’m talking 10-20 does per hunt with a single spike or 4 or 5 point mixed in every couple of days.


First of all, most guys here, myself included, would be over the moon at this type of action.

Are the small bucks starting to chase some of the does? If not, they’re still herded up. You can take a few does and not harm the herd. Once the rut starts, I leave the does alone. There’s not a better bait in the woods than pussy.

I hope this doesn’t come off sounding ungrateful. I’m very grateful for what we have now, because I can very recently remember seeing less than 10 deer in a season.

No it doesn’t seem like the young bucks are chasing does at all. They’re all about corn right now. I follow your line of thought as far as keeping the does around until the rut for the attraction of bucks. It seems backwards to me to even kill a few does until after the rut. Not hurting for meat. Just trying to figure out the right approach to herd management
