To deer or not to deer?

I am deffinately interested in deer hunting this year. It's been a while. My situation is this; We live in the city, in a 2bdrm condo. Although I have options pertaining to where I can butcher everything down and people that would be happy to take some meat I can't help but feel that a deer is beyond my means. I would almost feel irresponsible taking a deer that I couldn't fully utilize/be responsible for. I don't mean to say that I would kepp every ounce of meat for myself but at the point that I found myself Googling meat processors in my area I had to take a step back and ask you guys.

Do you keep what you hunt? Varmint hunting would be the extreme opposite because you may leave them where they lay, I do sometimes. I feel a little romantic about the whole thing. No waste and no trophy necissarily. Is there a market for deer? Do hunters donate or sell 1/2 or 1/4 deer, deer busts? I'd like to make sure the hide got into goods hands as well as the meat one way or the other. I don't mind sharing at all. For my lifestyle a smaller harvest might be better but most folks seem to pursue big does for meat. Are youngins out of bounds?

Thanx everyone!
