Gonna leave my trail cam's out until end of month then pull. Have noticed several bucks dropping antler's so not much use. Have a good handle on what survived the season and looks to be good for next year.

Are the county numbers available where you could see what has happened in a county over several years?

I don't mind putting my skills to the test with a lower number of deer. I think DNR has accomplished their goal balancing the doe/buck ratio. It's been a few years now with a close to equal taking of buck verses doe. I wouldn't be surprised if they try to keep the numbers around 100k +_ 10K and a balance of doe/buck. So I agree and okay with less deer. I started when it was around 25k to 30K.

I discussed the harvest numbers with a deer biologist and he suggested that this could be the new "norm". |
