[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5158478, member: 2805"] When to shoot them isn't nearly as important as WHERE you shoot them. Never shoot does on your best buck hunting spots if you plan on hunting that property in years to come. Even shooting one at the end of the season after buck hunting is over will educate the remaining deer and they will learn to avoid that area in future years. I no longer shoot does for population control. For personal use, I like around 50lbs of pure deboned meat per year. I'd prefer to get that meat from a single 200lb buck, but if I'm not seeing a buck I want to kill, I will shoot a couple does instead on areas where I do not hunt for bucks. [/QUOTE]
