Default RE: To shoot a doe or not to shoot

ORIGINAL: James B

Does have to be harvested to keep the balance between available food and the number of deer that have to survive on it. Iys not a pretty sight when deer overpopulate and start starving. I take 99 percent does because I think they are much better to eat. I like to see the bucks on my property I like to watch them walk away alive. I like to take pictures of them. I am a meet hunter and the bucks on my land are safe. I can;t eat the horns and have no desire to have them laying around just to say I shot a buck.
I completely agree with you. you can't eat the antlers. like I always say let him go so he can grow.
