My area is the overpopulation of the deer. There are just so many deer running around, it's hard predict exectly when/where the herd will move next. The big ones are very much around, I've se quite a few each year. They just don'tdefend an area because there so many deer. You really have to be luckey enough to set up where they will cross your path that hunt. You also have to be real good if you have a bunch of deer around you because it's tough to get a shot off with so many eye balls.
