Compared to the up North, yes. But the doe(not the one I shot) is considered a big doe down here in TN. Our doe usually don't get over 130 lbs.
MC, If your deer herd is anything like ours, I think that shooting these 3 in one sitting (hunt) is not only fine, but what difference does it make over shooting one one day the others over other days? The Limit is the Limit and filling doe tags is not only legal its part of good game management. Nothing much better than does for the freezer, especially small ones. Sorry if that hurts any feelings but its like a fish that is a “Good Eatin’ Size”.
I also get the shooting of a small buck with obvious genetic flaws or one with weird rack to get it out of the gene pool. About the only thing I’d say is, you have a bit more good meat on those necks that is really good in the grinder with the shoulders. You can usually get two nice pieces from the bottom of the neck that run almost to the head and two more ok ones from the spine on up to the head.
Like you I think the meat on the ribs is so full of junk that it is best to feed your foxes with them. If I ever ran into anyone who liked them, I would gladly supply them! HA.

We ended up giving my dads best friend the bigger does meat because he has given us a lot of deer over the years. And as far as not getting the neck meat, I don't cut them up but I'll tell my dad to look into it next time

Master Chief good shooting. If the law says you can shoot three a day then blast away and I also agree the young ones taste better. I'd but a 90# yearling on my freezer over a 130# doe any day.
Don't worry about the pic either its part of hunting having the leftover remains if people don't like it they need a new hobby.

We get 3 or 4 tags a day. I know we can kill 3 doe but IDK if you can still fill a buck tag after killing 3 doe in one day. We get 3 buck tags over the season and can't kill more than 1 a day. Way too many tags for one season. Our season is really long also.
