bionic,. i hunt a lot here in 2g.i am retiredsupervisor.anyhow, i hunt about 3 to 4 days a week from archery to last day of flintlock.i come from a great hunting background. i saw around 34 deer in that time period. some of those 34 same deer i saw from first day of archery,.so count could be down around 20 that were real count .i could have taken doe, i choose not too. these 20 i saw covered around 40 miles of hunting.half of those were on privateland, lets say about 12 out of 20 or so.out of that i saw around 5 bucks,2 legal. i hunted 1 of those until flintlock,yes, i did not get him. so, i could have taken doe but what would have been left for this year. doug, says HABITAT is reason for no fawns, so if i shot doe, no fawns and add in his habitat. well, you see.does that mean there are lots of deer in 2g if ole sproul can kill doe?nooooooooooo.hunters that areputting in time,day in ,day out can get a DOE. buck is another story now, they are scare and very hard to get with pressure that is on deer now to eradicate them and hunters after MEAT now and not after a buck ,like me.BUT ,many hunters that go out in gangs each year,are not even seeing many deer. some only saw 2 doe,they killed those for 3 days of hard hunting.just because a hunter gets a doe and says it was easy, does not mean lots of deer are left.they are putting in time, as doug does and driving all over state to get one. as crazy horse said, most cant do this or have camps.most dont have the time to scout all over state. i agree,the ones , like me that spend time in woods, 4 days a week,have big advantage over ones that dont. BUT, that does not mean its easy or there are lots of deer because ole sproul can get one.now, you have ,say 50 hunters after 3 deer. it used to be, 300 deer, for every 50 hunters.
