I have heard members in an older club get all frustrated that they shot a button buck because they thought it was a doe. I believe the key word here is "Thought" to me meaning that they never actually confirmed their target to be a doe to start with. Seems if they were worried about shooting a buttonhead they would be 100% that it wasn't before shooting. I have shot two buttons since I have been hunting. It was not a mistake as one was with a bow and the other with a rifle. I just knew there was no horns and they were legal so I shot. Since those times I refrain from doing that. I mean am I the only one that can look at a deer in a scope and beyond a shadow of a doubt say that is a yearling?
