I've said it before.....You're either part of the solution....or part of the problem. I have NO issues with people who hunt bucks, exclusively...but if you're living in an a rea laden with does.....do the right thing and take your share.
If you don't have an overpopulation problem.....and you STILL take multiple does.....you're part of another problem.

A problem we have in the area I hunt (SW MI) is hunters choosing to wait until the late season. They say they don't want to take a doe early because it will screw up their chances of getting a buck. So they pass does early, kill a buck or two, and then don't hunt the late season. It's either too cold, it's the holidays, the freezer is already full, etc. If more does were killed in the early season, I think we might actually make a dent in the overpopulated areas.

For a guy who's limited to one tag now, since 1.2 million deer aren't enough in the state ....
Pro: You have meat in the freezer and are proud of your accomplishment.
Con: You're done for the year and forced to wander around your pro-shop talking about next year and that buck while everyone is out hunting.

1. Depending on where In the woods you shoot the doe and where she runs to can screw things up with all the intrusion. In good buck hunting area's In the woods I won't shoot a doe till late In the year otherwise I know It's going to screw up my buck hunting.
