hell we have a hard enough time must seeing deer much less worrying aobut how my we kill an acre.... We've killed 7 deer off alittle under 1600 acres. 6 does, 1 buck If them 6 does were still living you’d at least have a little bit easier time seeing some next year. I love shooting them and and I’m a fat kid has always loved eating them but sometimes I think you’re better off saying you just gonna let em go for this year or maybe even shoot a spike or something if you want one to eat. None of my business but it’s just a thought. Blasphemy....

I only have a 10 acre tract that I hunt every other weekend to keep the pressure down. I normally shoot 4 or 5 good mature bucks off of it a year myself. My brother hunts it the weekends I don't and he shot 4 bucks this year himself. And we continuously have good bucks show up. It's all about location. Our 10 acres borders the Portland Landing SOA in Dallas county. 4-5 good bucks a year yourself? Why dont you post up yours and your brother's full names and addresses since you're admitting to consistently breaking Alabama Game Laws. I'm sure there are some people in those silver and green trucks that would like to tour your 10 aces with you and give you some management suggestions with regard to harvest strategies.

I own 5 and my brother owns 5. My name is Harden Long and my brother is Ben Long. We have a special exemption from the state because we are farmers. They have devastated our crops.

That's just what we own. We lease another 3,000 for farming near the river in Crumptonia. I could be mistaken on the exemption about antlered deer. I will call the state and get that figured out.

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I looked back on our records and we typically kill about 1 deer per 100 acres. I'm sure that total could be much higher.
