I love huntn always have , but shootn a doe with an orange vest on, well your just asking for years of bad huntn karma !! It's one doe, me personally I don't think ANYONE should be allowed to shoot a doe unless your a youth , disabled or senior!!

I'd get a full mount done with the vest.

There's lots of does around without resorting to shooting someone's pet.

I wouldn't shoot it, as long as it was done legally I wouldn't fault another hunter who did.

I wouldn't face the wrath from my neighbors over a doe they managed to put a vest on... now if it was a 140 class black tail I'd be trying to figure out where to place the mount that didn't display it for everyone to see.

Shoot another doe, then call this one over to help pack it out. If only that vest had saddle bags on it.

or

just have this one accompany you while you hunt the rut....rules say I can't hunt deer with a dog but what about a pet deer.

This deer has been hand-fed corn and apples. Get in my belly!

Even though it may be legal don't shoot. All it takes is one neighbor to freak out because you shot their pet and there will be a reporter and camera crew at your door wanting to know why you shot a pet deer. There are other deer out there, don't risk giving hunters another black eye.

Pretty sure nobody needs to shoot a puny doe like that bad enough to warrant shooting someone's pet. Talk about not doing squat to improve hunter image...
Does the downtown Gig Harbor buck being talked about in another thread do any good for our image? Same type story.

Pretty well sums it up.  Legal does not always equal correct. 

Although I disagree with it being a pet.  A dog or cat is a pet, this is a wild animal that has been tamed.

Having said that, I still think jackelope's assement and comparison is spot on.

To be honest, can't say this didn't cross my mind when I read it, though...
