RE: How important is doe hunting
I love it when the area I hunt gives out management tags. I then usually will try and take an older looking or a bigger looking doe that has no fawns with her. I figure if she has no fawns with her she's a good one to get rid of (thinking maybe she's to old). I get pretty worked up when i know i'm going to shoot a doe, i've shot alot of doe's and to this day i still get just as excited as my first one! When i loose that excitement its time to quit hunting!I tell you what though that some of these old doe's are on the ball big time! This year I seen some of the biggest doe's ever, not one of themhad a fawn with them, they were by far the smartest whitetail's i've seen yet. If I was going to shoot them that night it would of been real tough, they had me picked out in no time 18 feet up in a tree. I shot my big 8 from the same stand1 day later and he didn't have a clue I was there.
