Default RE: To shoot a fawn?

First off I am proud to see people actually calling them fawns! I think it is funny with people shoot a five month old deer and then drum it up by calling it a yearling, I always chuckle when I see that, so for that I am proud to see! As for would I shoot a fawn, I have not done it in a while. I shot one a few years ago out of not having a bunch of action, I hadlost my old hunting spot and the new one was not learned yet and I had been with out a deer for two seasons so it was bad luck on the little girls part! That yearling was the best tasting meat I have ever put on the plate, and the only deer that my wife actually enjoyed and did not snub her nose at. I have been thinking about shooting one several times since then, just have not done it yet, but now that I can kill four deer this year I may just do it. Now if it had spots on it I may have a change of heart, but no spots and it will be game! Also, during the rut most does run there fawns off so they can survive just fine on there own.
