Not opposed to shooting does.

My plan is to shoot mature bucks and shoot does after the rut.

That’s easy for me because I love to watch deer and I’ve killed plenty.

We watched two 6’s push each other around last week. We didn’t kill anything but, he learned a lot. I was perfectly fine with what we had accomplished but have had a few people give me grief over it. Plus the 14 has a very itchy trigger finger. I did to at one time but have learned there is more to it than killing. With that said, I’m not sure how much they will continue to hunt if they never pull the trigger.

I’ll be honest, the only deer above that I personally won’t shoot is 4. If he walks out I will let him go unless the boys are with me. Once they shoot something that big we will let those walk.

That’s the plan I started the season with.
