Default RE: Fawns and yearlings.

Part of it depends on if you are trying to manage the deer herd for better buck harvest in the future and the population of the deer herd. Many places in the south the need to harvest as many does, regardless of their age is beginning to become a major problem. Many states let you shoot two does per day throughout the season, and yet the population continues to soar. I have some larger acerage tracts that we try to manage for future buck harvest, and I have some areas that we shoot whatever you want to. Just your own choice.
