Default RE: Crop damage summer hunting?

Apparently I overstated my case. No where did I say I couldn' t or wouldn' t take deer on the permit. I just questioned shooting button bucks and does with young fawns running alongside. Don' t want to be accused of " cryin' " about it . . . listening s-r?

Having taken somewhere in the vicinity of 60 deer with my bow, I obviously CAN bring myself to shoot deer. NO PROBLEM THERE. It' s my favorite pastime and one of the reasons I' ve been a regular on this site for over 3 years. I DO have a heart though and don' t want to kill mothers with young that will die slowly without them. I also don' t want to shoot possible future trophies by taking out button bucks. I' ll give it a try on the occassional cooler evenings and just have to be selective.
