Default RE: Quality Deer Management (QDM)

I have had the same situation. the best way to handle it is to ask all neighbors what they are harvesting and what they are letting walk. then if it comes down to one neighbor shooting everything, casually explain to them that all of the neighbors are practicing herd management, and having their property involve would be a great help. explain the benefits of qdm, and the fact that with more surrounding property using the same methods can greatly benefit the herd for everyone.between my family and our neighbors we now have over 1500 acres under strict management since 1999. the results are amazing! if it comes down to it, don't get aggrivated if one neighbor doesn't cooperate. it is his land and he does have the right to do with it what he pleases,as crappy as that may be.
