I have been able to count on my oldest two sons for taking does until this year. One is away at college and the other will not have much time to hunt this year. We have a couple of families that appreciate a venison donation every year so I plan to shoot a couple of mature does. It is good practice, good experience, and I have too many on my property. I ususally reserve doe killing for the weekends though as it can be cause for some late nights during the work week.
