I'd think he will as long as the corn is up and it should be for another month-6 weeks. Just need pressure to stay lowHopefully he stays around..

I'm right there with you man. Did it once, years ago and had to sit there and listen to the little one bleating for it's mama. Nope...never again. Call me a wuss or whatever...idc. My shot ,my choice. Glad I'm not the only one..

My dad has had the same experience. My thought is the does usually get a pass until the spots are gone. Once spots are gone they don't need momma to survive, at least nutritionally.Definitely not the only one. I had a similar experience before and feel the same way. I also feel like if mama hasn't kicked them out yet, them becoming coyote food is a much higher probability. I don't want to give those muts any more food than what they already get!
The doe I shot last year had milk. She was with two other does, a larger one and a smaller one. I guess the smaller one may have been her fawn but it had no spots so it was probably able to take care of itself. I felt bad anyway.Couldn't do it. Only doe I had in range last night came out with her fawn. Her fawn still had spots on it. Other ones never came in range. It was any weapon, but I wanted to tag one with the bow to see how my heavy arrow set up does.
Sounds like we all have learned that either firsthand or from a fellow hunter... Hoping we all get enough opportunities to think out our options before taking the shot!Couldn't do it.

Who is headed out this weekend? I’ll be in Maryland again. I’ve been on auto pilot all day at work, been thinking about deer all day. Lol
Must be right at the end of shooting light?Pulled a cam in Central Florida and got this BEAST! I've not seen bear this huge here, and I'm guessing 300+. The trunk of the palm in the center is about 30" wide and the bear is about 25ft from the camera...View attachment 35476View attachment 35477
It baffles me that you guys have bear down in Florida! Isn't it to warm for them there?It would have been right at sunset. Pretty thick in there so it gets dark fast!

Guess not...they're kinda scattered throughout central and north Florida, but quite a few in the southwest area too. The population is steadily growing and becoming more and more an issue. Had a scheduled week long hunt a couple years ago but the quota, which went unannounced until it was met, was filled on the first day. Then our Fish and Game made the political decision then to not follow the science and staff recommendation to continue hunts so here we are....It baffles me that you guys have bear down in Florida!
