We could always just turn the entire state into a huge DMAP like they used to do for doe tags. Want to hunt your land? Make formal application and they will evaluate and assign you property specific tags based on your acreage, location, habitat, herd density and B/D ratio. Your tags will be assigned based on what they feel is a sustainable harvest for your specific property and overall area.

This, strict enforcement, and a whole bunch of expensive tickets, for hunting without tags would solve most of the issues mentioned above within 5 yrs. Bunch of very unhappy small acreage property owners but it would solve the problem of excessive harvest throughout the state for whatever reason it is occurring, be it corn piles, out of staters, locals killing too many does and young bucks, small poor habitat properties being used as slaughter sites. This would solve it.
