Default RE: Managing Herds......

You can let it happen. You as an individual can do that, thats your choice. I was simply saying as a group hunters can't do that because the deer hunting would be @#$%%@ for many years to come.
I agree, I think I probably didn't explain myself better with my earlier posts. I agree we ashunting states (whatever state you are in) need to set limits on our game animals. This has shown to work very well if implemented correctly. By doing this we can control the overall numbers to a certain degree and insure a healthy population for years to come.

Beyond that is where I'm questioning things. Do I REALLY need to kill more does on the properties I hunt? If I don't and just let nature take it's course could I even tell the difference 10 years from now. It's been about 20 years since I started to kill more does and I honestly don't see any changes in the dynamics of the herds I hunt.

I don't know......
