[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 3696512, member: 15643"] We practice this anyway on the places we hunt and have for years. From what I can tell it's made no consistent difference. We still don't shoot as many does as we need to, some years we see several mature bucks on cams, some years we see almost zero(like this year), and just because we see them on cams doesn't mean we see them in person. The two biggest bucks I've ever killed were on opening morning of rifle, where I don't have stands or cams, just happened to see them the night before when glassing and sit in that exact spot the next morning in a canvas folding chair lol. Both had never been seen till that previous evening. 12y between those two kills lol. I've said this for years now to those who think you should have to shoot a doe before a buck, or before a second buck.....the number of does checked in will greatly increase, but the number of does killed won't change that much. The words "phantom doe and Echeck" work well together. Outfitters will throw fit over a "doe before a buck" rule lol. I would like to see what the ODWC's financial thoughts are on this as well.
