If you guys are seeing 20-60 deer so far this season and you can kill a doe a day you guys out to be layin the smack down, buying extra freezers and keeping the processors hopping. And if you are not killing half of the deer you see then why not cause it sounds like an overpopulation of deer.


Many of us are seeing the same deer multiple times. And there are as many that enjoy watching them more than killing them. It doesn't matter if I see 80, I only need 2 a year, or three if I am making jerky.


I am seeing the same deer most of the time. I am with you, I enjoy watching them almost getting attached to them. grin I will not pull a trigger on a doe on certain land we own. I only shoot bucks that I like. For example I was watching a small six and 11 does/ yearlings and 10 minutes later a bugger much maturer 6 came in I killed him. First time I had pulled the trigger in 3 years in that stand.


I love the rut. The woods are like a bunch of roided up meatheads fighting over a girl.
