My father started hunting as a child in the late '50s/early '60s in the Atmore area. They killed a few deer, not many, and it was the old-fashioned man-drive where if anybody got one they all got part of it. They NEVER shot does on purpose. It was a cardinal sin. But they'd knock down anything with an antler on it. When the deer population of AL surpassed the human popuation the state eased up on the doe season restriction, giving hunters more choice and flexibility in which does they killed and when. Unfortunately, some have taken the liberal bag limit as a personal challenge, and, after several seasons of unrestrained doe killing, can push a local area back to 1960's population levels.
