I guess I will have to hold out for a 33 year old deer.

ICALL2MUCH don't take this the wrong waycause I see alot of similiar posts and I am probably reading into this too much but saying "you do what you want and I'll do what I want" is fair enough but when it is "you do what you want and I'll do what I want (but by the wayIMO what you are doing is like shooting birds out ofmy wreath)" changes the context a little. I also don't follow the shooting a 1 1/2 year old doethen saying you onlyhunt mature animals line of thinking. There is really only about 12 months, give or take, age difference/experience between a first year doe and one in it's second year and both are far from mature. I'm probably just reading into that one too muchor does that mean basically youshoot any legal doe except for one that appears to be 1st year and only hunt mature bucks?

I didn't type that, I typed this:
I like the deer that I shoot to have more "savvy" than a first year deer.

You are just being difficult. :D
If I were you, which I am not. I would hold out for mature animals that have the same kind of "savvy" you have around the deer woods.

One to walk out in front of me. A doe, is a doe, is a doe.

I prefer to wait for an older doe to harvest - But there are times when I have harvested a doe fawn - it all depends on where i am hunting, I would not want to drag a fawn from deep in the swamp - but 100 yards into the woods - might be a different story - prob the last few years I have targeted 1.5 year old and older on does and 2.5 and older on bucks

I'll stick a doe fawn unless it's in spots. When I do it, I do it for the meat, not for the hunt, not for the challenge (although hitting those little suckers can be tricky), but for the meat. That tender venison is some of the finest red meat I have ever eaten and will try to get some of that in my freezer every year.

Not every deer has to be for the challenge for me, some have another place, and that is next to the potatoes and carrots.;)

OK...GAME ON then. A yearling is a 1.5 yr old deer. One line says you give yearlings a pass, the next says you smoke them all day long.
