Favorite to hunt, Small, Large????

What would you rather hunt Small game or big game?
What Small game would it be?
What Large game would it be?
I love hunting rabbits, wouldn't mind getting some squirrels with the bow if I get the chance to draw back on one.

15 years ago I said if I was allowed to hunt only one thing a year it would be squirrels becaue the season was so long and bag limit so liberal.
However, these days the deer season is almost as long and the bag limit where I hunt is unlimited for does.
So, while I love to squirrel hunt, deer are my favorite.

I'm a deer hunter first and foremost. When they are out of season or I'm getting burned out then, I'd enjoy hunting rabbits more if we had more of them.
Since rabbit populations seem so low here (coyote predation is the culprit, I think), then I guess I have to go with squirrels.

Everyone usually wants whats on the other side of the fence but I love our whitetail deer. Would rather hunt them out of any game I could choose.

Elk, have only done it five times cuz I live on the east coast. The breathtaking country, physical challenge, constant pursuit...it blows me away every time.

Big game. Deer (white tails and muleys) elk, moose, antelope, bear, turkey, in that order, but the distance between them is very small, i.e., I like to hunt them all. Would like to hunt caribou sometime.

Squirrels, ground and tree!
Rabbits would be too, if we had any to speak of.
Love hunting coons in late season, when their breeding and the weather cooperates!
Oh and don't forget my favorite, Bowfishing, too!

I forgot to mention Bowfishing, that is another choice that is pretty high on my list.
Where is everybody from also?
I would like a chance at a place to take as many does as I can and want. Talk about a cookout....

Whitetail deer is what I live for. I get a rush EVERY time i see one. I enjoy everything else, but everything else just holds me over till deer season again.

Big game. Since my state of Texas has initiated a buck antler restriction rule of 13" inside spread, I'm gravitating to feral hogs and javelina.

If I could only hunt one animal, it would be squirrels.

I choose big game. Turkey hunting here is great, although I like deer more.
