Fawns stop (Correct- Does stop fawns from nursing at about 7 weeks) !
A doe, if you need, or want, meat, or just have such a low population of deer,
can be taken any time out of spots. Is it the right choice? For me no.
I had what I thought was a 50# yearling walking out on my left thinking I would get
a great shot of mama doe right behind it. BUT! Instead, a fifteen pound spotted
fawn walked out.Well what do you do? ME let the spotted feed for another month!
So I passed!

If it has spot's let it walk and if your family only eats alittle meat try hunting with a camera! Hunting is not just about what you kill , but more of what you learn in the woods and the time you spend with friends and family.


No matter how long you boil antlers ,they get tender!

It doesn't bother me what anybody shoots as long as its wild, hey,its all right with me......
As far as I'm concerned hunting should legally be a right not a privlidge....
Especially nowadays..
After all, look at this bird flu mad cow disease thats happening with domestic livestock.
Every domesticated animal eaten is pumped full of steriods nothing is natural anymore.
Who wants to pay anything to eat that infested crap.
Actually,there is a pig farmer who's currently on trial here in my home Provinceof British Columbia for on 6 charges, suspected, of murdering close 50hookers, that where drug addlits andmore than likely, carried infectious diseases such as aids and Hep C..
The area he picked these girls up at is the largest pop / capita of aids and hep C in all of Canada.......
He than apparently butchered the women up and fed the body parts to his pigs.
Think of that next time you sit down and eat Canadian Bacon cause it all got sent south......

My region has way too many deer and a very generous bonus antlerless limit, so I'll smoke a nice tasty fawn in a New York minute. I figure I'm helping our DNR with their management plan, and getting some sweet meat in the bargain.

Fawns = mush [:'(]

fawns are nice to shoot, cause all you gotta do is pick a "spot".

If you want a deer to put on the BBQ use a fawn,nothing better. But if you grind them, yea, its mushey.

I had a Fawn burger, and it was the best burger I ever had! Not sure what “mushy” mean?

refross

Not sure why it would be short of a crime? Is male ego the reason, or is there a practical thought out reason?

I have nothing against someone who wants to shoot a fawn for meat, as long as it doesn't have spots, which is illegal anyway. I nomally won't do it, but I have. Sometimes later in the season if I want to take another doe, I'll purposely take a fawn. Early in bow season I usually don't like taking one. My target in bow season is a 1 1/2 year old doe without fawns. I usually try to take two.
