Pa....I feel like you do about the fawns, really....and we have about the same number of bowkills.....but I gotta be honest with ya....lol...

Maybe it's still my relative "new-ness" with bowhunting....but I ABSOLUTELY view a big 'ol doe as a "trophy". I'm proud of every one of 'em (although I'm not REAL good at killing them!). Like Rybo said.....the "giddiness" will reach new levels if I'm lucky enough to get one with my longbow.

Heck....the does around here get names just like the bucks! Rob remembers hunting when "Cadillac" came in with her two fawns....and I recall mentioning "Horse-head" in here last fall, too. She's a brute for these parts.

In '06....I heard a big commotion coming through the woods...and along came an ashen grey old doe. She was beautiful! She was really worthy of a full body mount, to me (now). I didn't know what I was looking at, THEN. I just knew I heard another deer chasing her.....which turned out to be a little 5 pointer (that later cost me a chance at a buck[:@]a few days later. I was paying attention to him and not the total area). That one worked out well, too...but I'd SURELY consdier taking her an "accomplishment" and I'd consider her a HUGE "trophy".

Funny how everyone sees things (even individual deer) differently. I love that. Nobody' s wrong.
