Default RE: YOUNG DEER

I must confess that I've shot a few youngsters. There is no better table fare. Now as I mature I don't shoot them, but I wouldn't look down on anyone who did. Large racks and trophies sure do feed the ego, but not necessarily the belly. Many folks hunt for food, I was once a freezer filler. My main goal was to provide meat. I still love venison, but Its not as much of a priority.

Also, I think its if no more inhumane to kill a wet doe and leave the youngsters to fend for themselves through the winter.
