The other rule is to have a positive ID on your target before you shoot.

To further muddy the waters, this was a blackpowder rifle season. I don't know about Wisconsin, but most states allow the harvest of either sex deer during blackpowder and archery seasons. Looking for antlers probably would have slowed this guy down enough to save his neighbor's life. I'm not defending his actions(or knocking doe harvests); just an observation.

WI is almost all either sex, regardless of the season. There are only details on which tags to use and how many extra permits are issued for a deer management area. There are too many deer.
