Default RE: Shooting does with fawns?

In your situation, I would probably pass on shooting the doe. Personally, I think it depends on the situation and the time of year. If it's getting late in the season and I haven't gotten a deer, I would shoot the doe.Where earlier in the season, Ilet them walk. It also depends on how long they hang around my stand and if I am in the right mood. I shot a doe a few years ago because she hung around my stand forever. I told myself if she walked into a certain shooting lane I would pop her. Sure enough, after feeding for a little while, she walked right in front of the lane so I took her down.
