The only thing that will happen when you shoot fawns and yearlings is, YOUR DESTROYING THE FUTURE OF YOUR HUNTING!!!!. If you want to screw up your hunting in future years go for it, just dont do it around my neck of the woods, yes there would be words!. Personally in the early season Ill only go after mature bucs and does that have no fawns with them, they need to come out of the heard. By mid October the fawns will make the winter so I will go after most mature does. Keep one thing in mind when you think about shooting a fawn or a yearling, was his daddy the pope&young that you have been after for years!!!!, maybeeeee!!!.
