Ohio has done good and bad things. I believe the one buck per year rule is definitely a good thing. The one thing that has bothered me and the guy that started me out hunting is Ohio's new deer permits. Where I live in NW Ohio woods are small and counties are mainly composed of flat agricultural land where in southeastern Ohio you have smaller fields and larger wood lots. In NW Ohio deer numbers are much smaller than those that come out of the southern section of Zone A for Ohio. One problem is the push my auto insurance companies to lower populations so there are fewer accidents that they have to dish out money for. They incorporated counties with very low deer numbers with other counties that have large deer populations and also large interstates and highways with higher deer populations so when they counties with higher numbers have a lot of accidents then we get bumped up as well even though we still do not have the deer herds to go along with this. My neighbor who started me out and I have both brought our concerns to the DNR but nothing is yet to be done and i doubt anything every will. At the time we refuse to kill does on our property because we are seeing a decline in the amount of deer. There is still plenty of food resources for the deer and still enough cover just to deer killed each year. when there are not enough deer produced to replace those killed the year before there is a decline and that is what i have seen this year.
