The first two days of modern gun season here in Ar either sex deer can be taken. In the past you applied for a doe tag and didn't always get one. I may take a doe as a lady near here will make the whole deer into jerky for half of the meat. My son and his wife will be in the Sta-Cab with me but he says I must take the first shot. He said if I missed he would kill it. I should hold off on purpose to see what the lad can do. LOL

Your plan is a good one if you want to create a lot of work in a matter of seconds. If I miss it will not be intentional. My son would not believe I missed anyway. He is a top marksman and I would be very shocked if he missed one from the cabin we hunt from. He is coming primarily just to help me enjoy another hunt.

Guess I need to check the reg book. I hunt in zone 12, Cleveland County, and I thought does were legal to take throughout the entire modern gun season?

Boarhog, Two does plus two bucks are the limit in zone 12. Thats where I hunt as well. The areas that do not normally allow does during gun season are the ones Ozark was referring to. It is the same in Garland Co where I live, but down here in zone 12 you are right. They are legal throughout the gun season.

Chuck, That is what I thought. If I can find a big ole doe that doesn't still have a little one with her, I have no reservation about shooting a doe. yesterday evening, I watched a huge doe walk stiff legged around my stand while her very tiny youngster tanked up on corn. It was so small, I was surprised it didn't still have spots. The nervous Momma finally got downwind, and that was that! I have not yet seen a legal buck!
