First of all, thanks in advance for any help any1 can give me. I am doing a school project for a science class of mine and am trying to determine the affect of clear-cutting on deer population, size, patterns, etc. I thought this would bea great place to get some 1st hand knowledge. Have any of you noticed changes in your deer herd after the land you hunt on has been clear cut or even experienced a forest fire? As for our property up north, antler size wasnt that improved, but the deer we harvested (9 in all i think) were much larger as far as body size goes. We had a button buck that was as large as a 3 1/2 yr old doe, and the doe wasnt small. I am especially interested in pics of your deer, and size and time of the clearcuts. Also, any other websites that might have some helpful info. Thanks again.

Mike
