Lazyarcher,
Here in North Carolina it used to be the same way. You only had 1 or 2 days out of a 4 month season to take a doe. The rest had to be bucks. Now the state has realized how important it is to keep the doe population under control. In most areas of the state you can kill 6 deer for the season. Two of those can be bucks or all six can be does.
The land I hunt on is overrun with does. The biggest buck taken there was an eight pointer. Most are spikes and four pointers. Food is scarce so the bucks don't get the nutrition they need to grow big antlers. The last three years we have tried to take mostly does and let the smaller bucks go which seems to be helping. In certain areas where there is alot of farming the deer have plenty of food bucks grow to a decent size.

This year we plan to start food plots and we've been feeding corn year round since we got the lease. Most of the land around us is owned by paper companies and the closest agricultural crops are about 5 miles away.

So to answer your question we are killing does now to hopefully get that wallhanger in the future.
