My personal rule of thumb is to avoid taking a doe with fawn(s) at side until way down into the season. We often have a late January or even later breeding down this way. Not unusual to see spotted, nursing fawns well into November. In general, if the "yearlings" are not spotted, and I do not detect any nursing activity, and I need the meat, I'll shoot the doe.
