Default Taking a fawn for the freezer?

On a typical bow season I will try and take an adult doe early to ensure some meat in the freezer and then if luck is with me I will also put a good buck on the wall and into the freezer.

But when December rolls around my goal is to get at least 2 fawns into the freezer. Man do I catch grief for this!! I catch flack from everybody for not only the size of my kills but also my "heartless" desire to harvest a couple fawns. I put deer in the freezer to enjoy the venison and IMO, nothing tastes better and is more tender than a 6 or 7 month old fawn. Hands down a fawn makes for the best steaks, roasts, and everything else. Sure you sacrafice a little poundage but the quality of meat more than makes up for it.

How about you, are you "heartless" like me, will you harvest a fawn, if not why?
