I haven’t killed a doe in Alabama in over 10 years. I have no intention of killing any does the rest of my days.

Shooting up the baby making factories. This. Don’t get carried away. You will ruin a piece of property doing this.

We use to kill 12-15 does a year on our 1700 acres in Marion junction every year. Never saw a dramatic drop in numbers.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

You certainly won't see the deer any more after you kill them. This is 100% obvious, but I bet at least half the people reading this disagree.

I don’t want them too shoot them and I don’t understand why they think they should them You can have too many doe in an area. Let them shoot a few. Heard control comes to mind but it's hard to do outside of a high fence. If they're eating the deer, them I see no problem.

It is a very fine line when it comes to harvesting does without seeing a drastic decrease in sightings. I don’t recall exact numbers but something to the effect of reducing numbers 25% will reduce sightings by 50% or something like that. I am with you I like to see deer when I go hunting, therefore we don’t shoot many does neither do our neighbors.
If you're gonna be stupid you better be tough.

It will make your bucks nocturnal quicker and does will be more skiddish if you start hammering on them And want see as many and in higher alert

There is no real reason to shoot them other than someone needing to admit they just want to pull the trigger a bunch and they are trying to justify it. For every deer you kill you will have less next season. The hunting pressure is not a good thing. Why would you want that? Less Does means...well, less Does on your property that will come into heat and that ultimately will draw in bucks during the rut.
Can't think of any scientifically proven reason to shoot a bunch of them either. Sorry. Does are the only thing that will create more Bucks. Less Does. Less Bucks. That's been my experience.
Kids, Meat for freezer, etc. Momma doe that comes up stomping and blowing your stand every single time you sit in it... All valid reasons to shoot a few.

Our acreage is similar- and similar # of does was about what we did last year. no noticeable difference based on camera survey from Aug to end of Oct. Will probably shoot a few more- folks in the community want what we do not use.
