We have 800 acres together with 200 of it still being farmed every year with standing crops most of the year. We have taken 12 doe and 2 bucks so far since the opening of rifle season. Normally we take between 20-40 deer a year off the property. Three years ago we took 35 deer off of 350 acres of it and only noticed a small decline the following season when we took 20. Back up to 28 last year. It all depends on where you are,deer density and the food available year round.
