I’ve killed a few small ones on accident and yes they are tender but I won’t even shoot a doe with fawns let alone a fawn. No sense in it at all.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

While I guess it may be legal, some people need to have morals. Like they said, there is NO reason to shoot a fawn. It is common sense that if you want your deer population to flourish, then you shouldn't shoot fawns. I feel bad about taking a doe with a fawn much less a fawn with a doe. I just cannot think of a logical reason to shoot a fawn. I’m not saying I would shoot one, but how does killing a fawn hurt the population differently than any other deer? My first bow kill still had spots on it. Didn’t see them until I shot her. I was just excited to have a deer in range. Because you have to shoot 3 spotted fawns to get the same amount of meat of one regular sized deer

I'll be devil's advocate here. Which one helps the deer population more, killing a mature doe that can be bred there for dropping probably two babies that would boost the population, or killing a young deer that is not old enough to breed yet? Not talking spotted fawn, just young deer in general...

Just cause it's legal don't mean we gotta do it
Ethics and morals come into play here ain't no way I'd send something down range at a spotted fawn just brought up in a different time I reckon What is unethical or immoral about shooting a fawn. It's just a young deer most of the time the spots are gone by hunting season. How many button bucks get killed every yr, those are all fawns and I never hear anyone call it immoral or unethical.

I did not say I liked it but I dont see anything immoral or unethical about it. I guess in South Bama they may see more deer with spots on them but in central bama I rarely see one in deer season with spots anyway

Abortion is legal.....don't make it right I support abortion for democrats. And I don't give a damn about killing a young deer, or a young squirrel, a young rabbit, a young dove, a Calf, or a small fish.

Now how the heck did this happen? What was the process? Did the someone at the CAB actually recommend this? Publicize the proposal? Have a hearing on it? The dumbing down and de-ethicalization of deer hunting continues, SMDH. *yeah I know de-ethicalization isn't an actual word, but it is the best I could come up with to describe what is going on.

This is where the line has gotten REALLY blurry in Alabama between "Hunting" and "Shooting Deer".
In general "Hunting" produces a class of sportsmen that take pride in the sport.
"Shooting Deer" produces and entire State full of outlaws that don't care about Wildlife Management, having rules and reporting their deer. Just look at GameCheck.
You Sleep In The Bed You Make.
Y'all should think about this.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.
