After a thinning expect a boom. Until sweet gums take over and they shade out everything
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

This all depends deer condition. If your surroundings are poor then you have to overcome that hurdle before recruitment into the population will increase. Now, an increase in food quantity/quality will recruit deer from surrounding areas to you but overall the population hasn’t changed you’re just holding more of the local population on your property.
My opinion, use the does as bait, especially where you are. I’d be much less concerned about population management unless you’re involved in a huge cooperative. We still don’t shoot does Jeremy. Doubt we ever do on this piece of property. Just curious as to what to expect.

You’ll probably see more deer cause they’ll be easier to see. This can give you the illusion of having more deer.
83% of all statistics are made up.

Years ago I’d read on QDMA site that mature hardwoods could cary 15-20 deer per square mile 7–10 yr old pines could carry 20-40 deer per square mile 2-5 yr old could carry 40-60 deer per square mile
Of course this all depended on certain variables but acted as a good overall idea

Find you a good tree on one of those thinned rows watching a good funnel and camp out during the rut. The deer are going to be there cruising/chasing. Fify

Like others said, post up where you can see down those rows and preferably on the timber type change.
