By Glen Wunderlich After some six weeks of archery deer hunting and numerous occasions to take does and bucks, I had resigned myself to a certainty: Having an antlerless kill tag is of no use unless it’s punched.
Not that I had intentionally set out on opening day of firearms deer season to hunt a doe, but I had the option, if opportunity knocked. Sure, like any other hunter, taking a big buck is always preferred. However, antler soup wasn’t necessarily on the menu. Venison was!
The one-shot, one-kill mentality is explained with a J.D. Jones hand cannon in .45-70 caliber here…
