How many hunters shoot the first deer that walks by them during the firearms season. That includes shotguns, rifles or muzzleloader. I myself am picky and wont shoot a yearling doe or button buck.
Well if its a mature buck and its the first thing than yes. See the way i hunt is that we dont shoot any thing under 6 pts at are free rome hunting camp up north but in public if its a buck i will shoot only if its not a yearling. i was taught that you NEVER... shoot a yearling or button/spike i was told that. because then there will be no bucks the next year. if its like the last day and i see a mature doe i will shoot it over no deer. so no i wont shoot the first deer i see UNLESS.. its a mature buck.
