well in the past i have shot button bucks that i mistook for does. it tore me up, because who knows what they would have been the next year? i did this one time and was really mad and upset with myself, and my cousin pulled me aside and said no matter what if i enjoyed the hunt, and knew we were going to consume the meat it was okay. i guess everybody makes mistakes. i remember one article i read about "just" deer. it struck a chord with me and i've always tried to remember the message. no matter what you shoot, it's never just a doe, or just a little buck, it was a living animal that you took hopefully for the right reasons.
