Ive got 127 acres and its all dedicated to wildlife. Its the deer magnet of the area. The bunch bordering to the northwest of me went from 4 hunters killing everything that jumped the fence to 1 hunter and hes into trophy hunting. That in itself saved a lot of doe.

High pressure areas can turn around if you leave the older doe alone for a few years and then be selective in how many doe you kill. Bad thing is everyone wants to kill the big old mature doe and those are the ones who can increase your herd quick. Plus, I see just as many bucks as I did before and hunting is a lot more fun when you see several deer on a sit.

Bottom line is manage your property however you feel is the best for you, I did. h.h.
