I live and hunt in a semi rural area (our 600 acres has subdivisions on 3 sides). We see deer around houses all the time. My parents live on the opposite side of our place about 3 miles away by 4 wheeler and have more trouble with deer the I do. They have had bucksrub a Magnolia tree at the corner of their house for several years. Before I moved my familyback toour hometown, I was down hunting for a weekend and killed (what was at the time my biggest deer ever) a 130" 11 point off the hood of my truck while sitting in my parents driveway. My brother and I use camtrackers and have gotten pictures of a 13 point thatshould score in the mid150's within 30 yards of my parents front porch.
