N e G g a please!! I have killed more deer than you will in your lifetime! And duck hunting is 10x more work than deer hunting. Went put out feeder and camera and hung my climber 2 weeks ago. Took ALL of 15 minutes.

Once you have knocked down as many big boys as I have, it gets old. Don't get me wrong I love deer hunting, but it is probably 4th on my list behind ducks, turkey, and trout! I bow hunt hard in between teal and duck season. And hit the rut hard in the split. But i only shoot big boys!

I hunt north of Baton Rouge in St. Francisville. Only 2 areas in LA open before the 1st I believe. I used to have a lease right by Laredo, TX but too close to Mehico!

Shooting does is for sissies!! Now that's like trout fishing with live bait!!

[BassAssasin]

shooting does is for management. I dont go on outfitted hunts so killing a deer is still a rush for me. I can see how that would get old

yep i use both, draws the does in so we can kill them to even out the ratio. Our bucks never come near the feeders.

[SGib]

Thats worse than fishing with live bait at least with ducks you have to make em come in the hole in tree lounging you just sit by something you plant at a time of year when everything else isnt really growing and green around and they walk out to eat and you shoot em

I bet the bucks dont come near the food plots either huh???

you must not deer hunt or bow hunt for that matter, i enjoy duck hunting i just think that all the work that goes into a hunting lease year after year vs that of a duck blind there is no comparison

[BassAssasin]

i hunt river bottoms in arkansas not barren texas. its tough to get them to eat corn with all the oak trees around

In my area, first few days of bow season are your best opportunities to kill a big buck. No one has been messing with them for months. It's hard to pass on that first big nanny that comes struttin in to your feeder but it can pay off. Big bucks will come to feeders early in the season. I find I have better success in bringing them in because I don't use an electric feeder. I cut a hole in the bottom of a 55 gal plastic barrel and let it gravity feed and it holds about 5 sacks of corn. I think the commotion of electric feeder keeps the big bucks away. They are in a routine of doing the same thing just about every day. Once rifle opens, they are hard to find until the rut.

My guests usually thin out plenty of does for me.

I killed a few good ones on my lease in SW Texas last few years, but we let it go. Too close to Mexico and guys in it were shooting every buck that walked. I haven't killed a good one in LA in a few years. I have 3 over 130" from my lease in St. Francisville. We hold some big deer up there. Biggest about 150"
