i felt different i still am looking for that first deer.
But yesterday i was watching two does and a fawn. i have always said i would drop the mom unless the fawn and milking at that time then i would wait till it turned its head
but after seeing the fawn and mom i would not shoot her at least not until shes alittle older come bow season i might. at the time there was another doe next to them that was a little bigger

Personal choice really, like Jeff's response. Even though they may be capable of living on there own, if I see a doe with a fawn(s), I'll pass. Can't explain it...I suppose it's a misconception like that NCWRC biologist stated.
