I've had years back in the late 80's and early 90's where you'd see 25 to 30 deer in a single day....gun or bow season.

The last 5 years or so, I've been hard pressed to get my eyes on any more than 6 or 7 in any one given day, give or take. And that's on a good day. I'm not sure if it's the area's deer populus, the fact that coyote and wolf numbers are rising at crazy levels, that there's less hunting pressure, or what. That's the reason why so many WI residents have a tough time swallowing the DNR's statements of more deer in these same areas than there has ever been before.
