Where in Zone 10? I live in Zone 10. Where I am there isn't a ton of deer, maybe a little over 5/sq. mile. We produce some good deer though. Not world class but nice 8-10 point racks withgood mass is pretty common around here.

About 5 minutes from my house, the next town over, last year there was a massive 9-point that got hit by a car. Below is a picture of the buck.

I know down in the Middleborough area they have a good deer population but down there it is mostly swamps and lots of ticks!!!
