Was 54% bucks, 46% doe's.

Seems like what alot of people have been saying is true. It was 55%/45% for Shelby County, which is where my lease is.

What were alot of people saying?

That we have more bucks than does?
That not enough does killed?
Too many does killed?
Too many bucks killed?
That people do not know that they are supposed to report doe kills too?
That counting dead deer is worthless?

I disagree. If people are to stupid to manage hunting pressure and deer harvest on their property it’s their own fault. No need to punish us that have managed properties with very little hunting pressure and actually need to kill a lot of does per year.

The state already crippled us by going from 2 per day to 1. People need to realize if it’s not public land the members have complete control of how many deer are harvested on their property. If you have low numbers decrease harvest or memberships. If you have high numbers increase harvest. You can’t set a limit to properly manage the entire state

DMAP


This ^^^^^. Go back to one week of doe season statewide and if you need to kill more, get on the DMAP. It would get control of all those 2-200 acre properties surrounding the larger managed acreage tracts, that are shooting every piece of brown hair they see, that's dumb enough to stick it's head into a corn pile or walk under the night light behind their camp or house. The medium to large, well managed properties are not the ones overshooting the does and young bucks and hurting deer numbers in certain areas of the state. It's all the little fragmented parcels around them that are doing most of the shooting. Its pretty much always been that way.

You management people are what screwed it up and you're still trying to screw it up more

Always worrying about what the guy next door is doing . In most of yall cases learning how to hunt would help not passing more rules

Does the state still charge for the DMAP program? When I was in several years ago , biologist never set foot on my place .

Hmm, anyone remember when you couldn't kill does? Anyone remember when there was only about a two-three week doe season. You could kill a buck a day though.

Yep. 5 day doe season. And properties that were overloaded got on DMAP. And we had a biologist from AU come to our place.

If any of yall aren't old enough to remember what it was like to hunt in the 80's and EARLY 90's well then you dont remember how good it was. Trigger finger restraint isnt this ole boys problem, nor any of the folks i hunt with. Its all these others brown its down... If you don't believe me, go to ANY processor in January look at all the damn does and yearlings hanging up. Its a tragedy, when you ask to see how many fetus's they have pulled out of the baby makers. What is so hard to understand about that? killing one deer and actually killing 2 plus ever how many for years to come.

If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
