Extended Doe and Spike season

 Just found out I can hunt until the 18th! Had no idea until I heard shooting this morning, looked onlune and sure enough. I guess its new for Wise county Anyhow, I have been letting my neighbor have at it for a buck, but we have several spikes and a cripple doe that he hasn't shot, I don't think she will make it in this cold as she is getting weaker and would really like to put her down. Has this season been around long? Not typically a doe hunter, so may have just missed it all together.

Yes sir last couple of years to my knowledge. Guaranteed to go out and look for a doe to harvest and see only bucks.

Thanks fellas, I thought I was getting my leg pulled, but it is right there on the website, but doesn't give any specifications. At 1st I thought they meant it was a "late youth season: thing.
Kmon, it could have been here too, IDK. usually take a buck and done since 15 acres doesn't allow much harvest.
4Weight, you got that right!!

I had 4 spikes the 1st 7-10 days of season while I was after a buck, probably wont see a single one now LOL
My neighbor had the cripple on opening morning and decided to pass, as far as I know, he hasn't seen her since. I have several time without a firearm in hand.

This may be the first season for Wise county, I don't know. It sounds like it was made for your area, Dennis. We have very few spikes/ doe so we won't hunt. My advice to you is , "let 'er rip".

Yep all you will see is bucks... Last year I went out 2 times to get a doe or spike and all I saw were young bucks and a couple of the big boys that we only saw on camera!!.. Go figure... It's like they know!

Yeah, I'm betting it is new, since my neighbor didn't know either. We don't take does since we have minimal land and few deer. Together we only control 31 acres, so...

I wish one of our neighbors had your hunter ethics. He has 12 acres and 3 hunters.
