I don't have any restrictions. Well except a fawn or a doe with a fawn around. I'd rather let those couple instances go for now
If you desire venison then I would personally drop those 2 restrictions. Shoot the next fawn you see and enjoy some of the best meat there is.

I understand, I played sports year around when I was young and never got to do any hunting. After I graduated my brother in law an father in law would always go so I said heck I'll try. Long story short Im on my fourth season and I'm addicted, but that's not before I say every Saturday an never saw a thing. Hang in there buddy you will learn something everytime you hunt.

East TN hunting is tough, especially in public lands.

You can't kill 'em if they aren't there!
Always bring it up in any conversations you have with people who you think might have access to some property.
I gained access to some land via a friend at church many years ago. Her dad owns it in another county. I have hunted it now for close to 20 years, and we are the only ones with permission.
Be persistent, you never know when someone might have some access but you just failed to ask.
Good luck!

I've had to wrap my head around a new philosophy. I'm a results oriented guy, always have been. Results orientation and deer hunting are tough to reconcile. So now I try find simple little things to enjoy during every hunt, whether it be watching squirrels, fox, etc and just being alone in the woods. I took the pressure off myself to kill every time I went out because thats completely unrealistic.
Good luck to ya, you'll get one eventually!

you will get it man! just stay in the deer's world learning about where and when they move and bed down, and keep learning from tndeer and the great internet as well. one day it will all come together and you will find yourself with a deer in your sights as you squeeze the trigger... just hold still, you will be shaking when it happens
