I didn't forget the seperate seasons for buck and doe "Sonnie". I also didn't forget the meaningless 3 day doe season where it rained every year and very few doe very taken. But now with the concurrent seasons you have a choice and more opportunity to fill the freezer with meat. But still hunters would rather shoot a small buck than a mature doe. I don't go back as far as "back then", but no one EVER shot a mature buck in my camp. Happy hunting Sonnie.
