In order to be considered a yearing, the deer should be at least one year old - othwise why the heck would we consider it a yearing? A deer that's born in the spring will not be a year old by hunting season, so that fall we call them FAWNS...
The next fall they are just over one year old, so we call them yearlings....
Some people want to make things so complicated [8D][>:]

A buddy of mine raises deer. It seems like he mentioned having 150" 1.5 year olds.
I call fawns yearlings and 1.5 year olds 1.5 year old. I also call lunch dinner and dinner supper.

It's only a "battle of interpretation" if you assume that a buck can also mean a female deer in certain vernacular.
A "yearling" IS a deer that is in it's second year.....or was born in the previous year. It's really not prudent to argue otherwise.
A "fawn" IS a deer in its first year......a deer bor nTHIS year.
Iassumed this was common knowledge.
