I realized something tonight...
I realized tonight just how bad the buck to doe ratio can be. I went out driving tonight to some known deer hotspots. Overall I saw 66 deer and 6 bucks. Around my hunting area it's probably about 3-4:1 which isn't ALL that bad but to the spot I went it was HORRIBLE. No one hunts this area either. It's a big agricultural area. I stopped at a corn field and got out and I swear it was like herds of cows. There were 45 deer in about a 1 acre field. I realize the bucks will hang back in the woods but I know theres not that many. Out of the 45 deer 3 were bucks. Just thought that was pretty bad. What is the approx buck to doe ratio in your area.
