Probably won't shoot any does next season. I seldom shoot a doe (as in I don't remember the last one I put an arrow through).

I always plan to shoot 3 or 4, but end up with maybe one or two. This year I will try to take 2 or 3, one in Mn,,,and one/two in Iowa.

I'll take one this year. I wanted to take one last season but with COVID the butcher shops were not taking deer early so I skipped it. I'm hoping things are back to normal next year.

Your area has plenty. With this mild winter, it will be high deer numbers. I bet 240 will be 3 deer again, maybe even more?

I won't shoot a doe ever again. The kids can shoot one or two if they want, but I doubt they will.

If I get drawn for another park hunt where the goal is to shoot does, then I will shoot a couple if given the opportunity. Otherwise, doubt it. It's been a few years since I haven't gotten a deer, and not eating venison daily doesn't sound too bad for a change.

I like venison enough. But, back when I didn't reliably shoot deer, it was a special treat. Nowadays, I look in the freezer and think, "more deer to eat", don't buy any beef. Not killing one this year wouldn't be the end of the world. And, I for sure won't shoot a doe, even if we're allowed.

I am done shooting does. Dont need the meat. I prefer beef anyway. I figure let em go and make babies(if the neighbors dont mow her down)
Only deer I will shoot will be a wall hanger(or close) and a wounded deer.

I'll take one if I get it in on the X at the right time and under the right conditions. I have a pretty short range with the bow, so it's gotta be about perfect.
Gonna have a second nephew joining camp this year, so he'll get one for sure. He's just the kind of kid that follows instructions well and will be in the zone until he seals the deal. The other guys are likely going to strike out.

I’ll admit I plan on making sausage , burger and chops only. I love the venison spaghetti and chili my wife makes and chops medium rare on the grill are good. Plus venison is really healthy compared to most red meats.

Venison mixed with my pork makes some of the best damn burger. I will shoot deer until my tags are filled

I like sticks and jerky and a little sausage. If I don’t get a buck with the bow, anything goes with gun, doe wise. Plus I want to put the new 6.5 to the test.

I may not shoot a doe on the new place. There's more then enough to go around but I enjoy having deer to look at on a daily basis.
