Title: one track mind?
Post by: kodiak06 on July 28, 2024, 08:22:26 AM: For those hunting whitetail during early archery, are you sticking strictly to deer OR also carrying a bear tag a long and shooting one from your stand?

Not sure you'll get many responses.

Can say Good luck on the hunt.
Don't be fooled by the heat ,I see deer moving until about midday.
Usually towards water.
