Default RE: Does with fawns

Usually around here by the time our season comes in the fawns are old enough to make it pretty well on there own. I have never saw a spotted fawn during our gun season which is in the middle of Nov. But If I did I would not shoot the doe, They would have to be born really late to still be sporting the spots that time of year. But by shooting the doe with older fawns, if one of her fawns is a buck he will probably stay around in the area instead of being run off by her when the rut comes in which means he may still be around in a few years with a hefty rack. If she is left she will probaly chase him plum out of the area to keep from him breeding her.

THE NRA, WHERE WOULD YOU AS A GUN-OWNER BE WITHOUT THEM.
GUN-OWNERS, UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL.
