There's plenty of does for meat.

if you shoot a 3.5 year old deer, that's good. My BIL shot a 170 inch deer 5 years ago, was the biggest/oldest deer prob ever taken off that property

that said, with a bow, I'll shoot a good 2.5 year old and I would def shoot that one

That's what I thought. Been only taking it on workout days because I mix it into my pre, but trying to stay on top of it other days too. Threw about 5g creatine and 3-4g BA in a Mio and water today. Had that crack head feeling kick in stronger than it usually does on my lifting days when I take a full pre workout. Was like LOL, wtf, just trying to grill some chicken and chill.

"If it moves, you shoot" mentality needs to be discarded. The bucks where I hunt rarely reach 3 years as people will hunt them down in the middle of the night. Blame it on human greed.

Back to that discussion yesterday about SHTF/TEOTWAWKI....for 99.9% of US residents (okay, more than that), the idea that you can feed yourself and/or your family by hunting game such as deer when virtually every other person out there is thinking the same thing, is pretty ****ing laughable. I mean, unless you live in Alaska [not Anchorage area] or maybe the least densely populated areas of Wyoming (doubt it)

No problem doing that with a gun but since I've never killed one with my bow, the shoot em line is lower

It's also upsetting when all the neighbors aren't on the same page, we've got must everybody that hunts our place on board but it's still an issue bc it's family land so it's hard to set hard line rules since there's no real repercussion and some people only get to hunt maybe once or twice and everybody has equal "rights" to hunt it

We have a 2 buck limit which one has to be a wall hanger. But, everybody's definition of that is different

Any wild game around my parts would quickly be gone.
I live near a fishing town. Ocean, lakes, ponds, salt marshes, etc.
Very easy to toss a line over a bridge of salt water and bring home pounds of fish in a few hours.
I could see in SHTF it will look like the watering holes in Botswana.

Or kill you trying or kill you for what you just shot or scare all the game away to where there are even fewer or no people after them yet if that is an option

Google says there are an estimated 30 million deer in the US. vs 300 million or however many people. So

They can try. Doesn't mean they will. Most Americans have a hard time peeling potatoes, let alone a deer or a duck. I think alot of people throw away more venison than they consume anyway

You have to outsmart the human. Has been done for the last thousand years, can be done today. Isn't this why game management exists?

It's open season here for 2 weeks with a rifle, and what, 3 months with a bow? And that supposedly controls population for a whole year.

Obviously people are going to exhaust all other options in a SHTF situation, but I say once it goes to hunting for food the deer population is wiped out in a month.

They don't actually have to do anything with it after shooting at it or hitting it or killing it to ruin other people's chances

It, meaning subsistence hunting in an area as densely populated as most of the US, has not been done for thousands of years. Probably it's never been done.

Let's be serious.

If you had a no-**** long-term fall of civilization, almost everyone in California, NJ, DC, Baltimore, NYC, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, and Boston would be dead in 3 months. Talking about the "current population of the US" like everyone has rifles or even guns in general is silly.

I'd give the cities about 3 weeks before the cannibalism started, and about 5 weeks before people stopped waiting for others to die to eat them. So, the rest of the country's ~150 million remaining people are much more likely to be living in rural/suburban areas. How much disturbance would there be for those folks?

I'd think that the things being hunted to extinction would be house-pets and rats like you see in Venezuela. People from street gangs in Chicago aren't going to be hunting deer to extinction.

Pretty much.

I try not thinking of these things as national, but rather local. A catastrophic regional disaster for someone living in Oregon for example might be, "get to the South." Someone living in NYC might need to "get out of the city." Thinking about it in these terms is more practical and reasonable. For example, I don't expect the entire US to be plunged into The Walking Dead overnight, but it might be reasonable to stock the items necessary to make it from my home state to a location a couple states away, or to protect my home against rioters.

While most people are storing up silver or food for their preps (or ammo, ffs) I'm thinking alcohol is probably the item to stockpile, if you only want to buy a pallet of something that won't go bad and will always be useful. People also need alcohol - disinfectant, recreation, anesthetic, etc. A pallet of vodka would go a long way toward making sure your people are fed.
