Default Field-dressing a doe

I will soon be going on a management hunt, where the object is to shoot does. Here in Virginia, we have to preserve the gender of the deer until it' s been checked. Antlers are a dead give-away for the bucks, but how do I field-dress a doe and preserve the required evidence? Thanks.

You can still tell on the head for any sign of antlers. There should not be any problem with anyone telling the gender of a field dressed deer.

Not sure??? In PA we have 2 clasifications, antlered and antlerless. If these are what you have then you are okay. If not, then when you are field dressing, bring a plastic bag and place those different types of gender for these deer in the bag and place in deer' s chest cavity.
