Can you put meat in the freezer on demand?

[arrowhead]

Neither I nor my friends are the caliber of hunter as some of you are.
So I am just wondering if you could go out and kill a deer on demand. Buck or doe.
I probably put in at least 20 hours for every deer I kill. Maybe it's closer to 30, and with luck!
I don't log it. Love to hear what y'all got to say.

Interesting topic...

I guess when I look @ it; I see between 30-50 deer per season and believe I typically pass on legitimate chances for a kill between 1 - 1 1/2 dozen of those sightings within bow range.

I have killed 1-2 deer per year for quite awhile.

EXCEPT when I hold off for a bigger buck...

I still hear Stanley comments ringing in my ears when he asks us hunters "how can you shot a big buck if you just killed another deer"... Makes sense to me, BUT, I do have to enjoy myself and this keeps me satisfied...

I believe I could. I haven't killed a doe for close to 30 years. Just don't get any sense of accomplishment, would be the biggest reason I don't kill does. My passion runs deep for big bucks so does don't mean anything to me just like 1.5 year old bucks. Not being haughty, just the way I roll.

Not on demand but I have plenty of chances to fill the freezer if I wanted. All depends on the land you hunt and your experience

Nothing is 100%, but I'm always keeping an eye on things and have little doubt I could make short work of it.

In certain private land areas I can kill does with little effort. One spot I hunted it was not uncommon to see 10-20 a night. Public is a little tougher but still pretty easy. It might take me a day or so to find em..but if I set 3 days aside to kill a doe n was serious about it I would kill one.

I have way more sits with no deer sightings so I would say absolutely not. Probably more of a product of bed hunting more than anything since I usually only see bucks. If I would hunt food sources and target does it still wouldn't be easy just since the population is very low right now. If this question was asked 10 years ago I would say it would be easy but not so much right now. Just being honest.

Since i seldom eat store bought meat anymore, i usually try to get s couple does each year. Not sure if i could do it on demand? In Montana on alfalfa probably most days i could have. I've been humbled a time or two but an old doe.

My land in south east mn presents a kill shot on a deer every sit. When I hunt public I have to work a ton harder to get kill opportunities.

Such a vague question is barely worth answering!!! Yeah sure I can kill multiple deer on demand if I go to private land that isn't hunted!!!! This means nothing to someone who hunts heavy pressured public

Give me an either sex tag, a firearm and room to roam. Fresh tenders by nightfall.

Some places, terrain and situations could be real tough though. But if the deer are there they can be killed.

I can take meat out of my freezer on demand.

I have a spot here on public I kill a doe every year within 3 sits. Been doing it there for 10 years. Now that I say that I'll never see a deer there again.

I think I would need some luck if I attempted to kill a doe on my local public with archery right now.

Wide variety of land and deer populations out there not to mention what you hunt with. Some places a very good hunter couldn't kill a deer every hunt with a rifle. Other places a mediocre hunter will get multiple shot opportunities every hunt with a bow.

When a hunter of at least average skills just wants to tag any deer, their success is mostly just a function of deer numbers in the area.

Most of the areas I hunt - with a gun I could kill a deer every hunt no problem. With a bow....probably more like at least every other hunt.
