I think I'll be heading over on Friday morning to find myself a whitetail doe and see if I can help the mule deer a little bit. I have an angle on a few  :)

  :tup: Good eats.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

I too would like to thank those who are electing not to use their doe tags and to those only shooting whitetails  :tup:.

Suppose Fitkin will use these "hunter success" numbers to report that with all the animals taken by hunters this year is just another testiment to non effect of wolves to our herds in the area  :dunno: ?

Took my son this weekend to unit 242 we saw a lot of deer and in the end he told me he couldn't shot a Doe.  He is only 11 and I didn't want to push him and make him do something he didn't want to and then ruin him on hunting.  He will know when it's time so there are two less doe tags that won't be filled.  We did make good memories and found new areas .

I think you made a wise.decision not to pressure your soninto taking a doe if he didn't want to... Not all parents are as wise. :tup:

:tup:  Not just because you didn't harvest a doe, but because I think you made a great decision with your son.  Good for him as well.  Impressive.
