Every knowledgable deer hunter knows you have to take some does. I personally don't like taking 1 1/2 yr. or older does later in the season. I don't want to take the chance of killing one that may be carrying fawns. I try to take my does in Oct. with bow and muzzleloader before the rut. I let a lot of does walk, which I'm sure most of you also do, but I don't let every single one walk. They taste too good to let them all walk.
