Default What happend to wisconsin???

Where did all the deer in wisconsin go the Dnr says there are too many deer! But this last Bow/Gun season sure dident seam like it too me. I hunt a lot every weekend plus some week days for bow and all 9 days for gun only saw 7 deer all season my dad saw 2 and my brother saw a glims of one. My buddy that hunts way up north said just a few years ago everyone in his hunting party put to gether saw 97 deer opening day and this year he was the only one to shoot a deer and that was the only deer they saw that day. My dad knows alot of hunters and there are only a few people that even saw deer this year so why dose wisconsin think there are somany deer here? When its hard to see a just one deer hunting as hard as you can. I know this sounds like im crazy but are the dnr makeing up numbers for there own reasons like geting payed off by car insuranc companys or because the deer eat farmers crops. There is just way too many tages given out for the amount of deer being seen by people that usaly get many deer a year and now dont see any. Sorry its so long but im just geting really tired of hear about too many deer and I cant even see any.

GregH is an exception. It is a proven fact that deer flock to gods.

idk i had another successful year, despite having a new high line coming through. The numbers are declining around us a little bit, but all the better if you ask me. it was rediculous about 5 years ago (year before EAB in my zone) I sat during the early Tzone and counted 200 deer in a 4 day span. Granted many were of course the same deer, but that many deer sightings was rediculous. around me you can drive around and see 20 deer in nearly every field, sometimes up to 60 or more

I have to agree that within the CWD areas it is taking a toll.
I recieved a Gun Deer Questionnaire regarding this past season and will be sending it back in completed.
1 question was do I support Earn A Buck and I checked no due to IMO that numbers are indeed down and that
CWD is here to stay because it lives in the soil. With that being said I will still do what the regulations state.
