Default RE: Hey Deer hunters

Just to respond to that... They WOULD have destroyed hunting if they'd been taking does in the mid-50's. We only have the deer numbers we do now because does were NOT hunted for many years. Deer were nearly extinct after the end of the Great Depression and it took a long, long time for them to make a comeback. Now there are more deer than ever before, they are running out of habitat and it is desireable to take does.
Or regions
My grampa used to see 100 deer a day while hunting in Northen MI after the depression, and 2 of them were bucks

Beyond that, it's all aesthetics and beauty is in the eye of the beholder. If you insist on telling me what deer I can shoot, let me pick out your next wife for you. How's that?
Once again not one menttion of "Shoot this one"
