Hi All;
I would like to enter my 2 cents worth. I live in southern Ontario, Canada. Given the existing regulations and availability of tags, the area I live in and so on, I too would go with the Whitetailed Deer. Beautiful animal, excellent meat. Worthy of the hunt and in good, close supply and obtaining a tag is not a problem. It is very possible to gain more game seals if you wish. Moose offers much more but availability of tags is an issue. Also, for a Southerner(?), a trip away for several weeks is necessary. I love the Ruffed Grouse, hunting it and eating eat and it runs a close second to the Whitetail. Much more meat on you deer though.
Haven't tried Black Bear hunting but will attempt it next fall.
Thats my thoughts. Best Regards!
BC
