I had a 350 acre tract, for 15 years, which was joined on three sides by NF land.
It was mostly inaccessible, or difficult to access, but that doesn't matter at all.
The pressure isn't caused by public land hunters, it's pressured by the road warriors, night poachers, beer can shooters, late night campfire parties, ATV parades, hordes of morons who just can't resist riding every single trail and playing in every single mudhole, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Usually I’m just an asshole, but if I catch an atv riding my property, my head spins around and I become a REAL ASSHOLE. You’ve got to let the neighbors know They were not riding on my land. But the constant activity, mostly at night, keeps the wildlife terrified.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.

Quit reading all those huntin Mags. Just go huntin. Why do you have an answer like this for every question asked? You did it on one of my post as well I mean I get what you are saying but this is literally on the quality deer management forum.

This country once subscribed to the “just hunt” philosophy and it about wiped out the deer herd so in the interests of conserving the tradition for my children and grandchildren I’ll keep reading hunting magazines.

A mature buck will have a home range of 300-500 acres, or more. No way I'm letting a 140 class deer walk on property that I hunt. That is a mature deer and I've never killed (or seen while hunting) one that big so he ain't getting by me. I mean damn, I don't know a soul who wouldn't be proud of a 140 class deer? He's been managed enough to live that long so he would be going on my wall.
