I wouldn'y shoot a fawn. I am primarily a meat hunter. Don't get me wrong, if bullwinkle walks by my stand, he ain't leaving. But it just seems in my opinion that it's the same amount of effort put forth to harvrst less venison. And having a brother who shoot's anything, I can personally tell you that fawns and yearlings are no more tender than a mature deer. Unlike veal, deer from early on in life are not seditary creatures(locked in a crate) and develope muscle very rapidly, so much for the babay veal theory.
