Is there a way to track how many were used in a year and by county?

Kind of blows that “they are killing all the deer with depredation permits” statements out of the water doesn't it ?

....."A total of 311 depredation permits were issued statewide in 2016, with an average of 13.4 deer authorized per permit and an average of 4.7 deer taken per permit (Table 10)"....
"A total of 1,556 deer were taken statewide on deer damage permits. When added to the number of deer harvested by hunters in 2016, the number of deer taken with damage permits represents 1.29% of the total take (hunter-harvested + damage permits). Most of the deer taken on damage permits were does (n=1,249), which represents 1.81% of the total number of does taken statewide by hunters and permit holders in 2016. A much smaller number of bucks (n=281) were taken on damage permits, which represents 0.54% of the total number of bucks taken and harvested in 2016. The majority of deer(76%) taken on damage permits were either consumed or donated"

Yea. Place I hunt is next to a farmer's house. Apparently he got 30 or 35 deer off his farm in 2017...according to someone. My buddy knows the farmer gets tags as he asked them if they wanted tags in the summer.
I told him unlikely it happened but I guess it could happen

I would like to differ on this as the farmer near us has over 40 people designated to shoot off their properties. Those numbers you looking off are reported number and if you believe those are accurate you are completely fooled. Jim Mitchell himself designated forty permits off of 6 fields in Monroe county and filled most of them himself a couple years back before he passed and then wanted more. Brown County was listed as almost 200 permits filled in 2016. I doubt that 20000 deer were taken in my county to avg about 1 percent of depredation permits.

Don’t think it’s 1% of county harvest... and where did you get the 200 permits filled? Or did I miss something

Probably the same 40 that's on FB saying there is no Deer! Then Blaming the DNR....

It actually was 117 taken last year. I thought it said 197 taken till I blew it up more on my phone. I stand corrected but essentially they would have to take 10000 to make the avg reported work instead of roughly 1500 reported. My county averaged about 8 percent of total deer taken by depredation permits in my county. If someone can prove to me how you can essentially how the state can local biologist prove a deer does 500 dollars worth of damage in a 100 plus acre alfalfa field that gets cuts each month I would be ok with the permits. I just don't think 8bpercent of deer taken should be by a select few who poorly manage the game.
