Where I hunt they have a doe season but I for one dont shoot them. I dont see any one elseshooting them either. To us here the does are our decoys. The more does we have the more the big bucks have to come and check out to bred.

I can say this past fall I see more bucks than does as well as high as 3:1.We can have bad winters. If a does is taken usually the fawn doesnt make it on its own so hence less deer. The yotes and wolves take there share so why take a doe.

I did a count this fall on fawns as well and they were 2:1 in fav. of the bucks. I used a herd that was using my plot of 40+ deer.

Bottom line I let the does walk
