Someone asked me an interesting question about tracking that I really don�t have a clue the answer to. It kind of made me wonder myself after they brought it up. Does anyone have an estimate of how many deer across the state are wounded each year by hunters and never recovered? There very well may not even be an estimates out there but I figured the good folks here at aldeer could probably come up with one. What do you guys think? Do you think 5-10% of the total harvest would be in the ballpark. This would mean that one deer is lost for every 10 to 20 shot. What is our total harvest estimated to be, generally speaking?
