As long as the yearlings do not have spots, they will be able to survie just fine. I harvested a doe on opening morning this year that had2 yearlings with her and i have seen them around a bunch since them. If the still have spots, let her walk.
You cold blooded killer! Good job
I had a doe with her fawn around one of my stands last year. I saw them almost every time.I watched the fawn with spots turn into a yearling w/out spots. Could've taken mom a couple of time when junior had spots but just couldn't bring myself to do it. (old softie I guess) But later after the fawn had grown up some I decided if the mom presented a shot I'd take it. Well she never did of course. Oh well. But I agree that if the fawn is out of its spots it should be okay.
