Depends on what part of the season it is! I'll pass a yearling no matter when. (Unless it's an accident)

Been passing 1.5 and 2.5 bucks and have not had a real good shot at a mature doe. Not going to shoot a fawn. Oh yeh, I am deerless for the first time in a long time.

I picked everything. Strange considering I have passed on a nice 9 point, two 6's and a forkhorn along with many does to get a chance at a monster buck. Got nothing during firearm season, the meat hunt begins December 5th......

I'll shoot any doe I get a good chance at, fawn or adult. As for bucks, it seems silly to shoot a buck now that I wouldn't have shot in archery season, so I will be hoping for one more opportunity at a big or old buck.

I like the challenge of hunting mature bucks , 3 1/2 or better . During archery season I will take a P&Y but that does'nt happen very often. It's a tough game but I know the score . It is usually me on the losing end of the deal. If I need meat I will take a doe but usually let them walk because I do not want to ruin my stand . It's just me and my way of doing it , not saying it is the best way , just saying what is best for me.

I hunt for the meat myself but I wont shoot a fawn, I will take a buck no matter the size simply becuz I hunt public land and usually dont have that many opprutunities at a nice one, plus I only get the chance to hunt on the weekends anymore cuz I have small children and I am a stay at home dad (not by choice I was injuried, dont get me wrong I enjoy it but just fell into it lol) cant wait til the kiddos can go along with me.
