RE: So are they ??
Germ's point is RIGHT ON as fas as "passing" goes. A 140" comes by me, he's getting jacked, and i'm in IL, but certainly not on a Drury property. I saw two deer this year that would gross Boone, but "saw" is the key word here. There is no doubt that there are more of them here than other places, but outside the rut, they are just as scarce as anywhere else. The thing here is that you can see them at night, get cam pics, so you know they are there, but during daylight, it is frustrating as hell not seeing them, yet knowing he is close by. Saw the same boone twice this year when pulling in to where I park to hunt, NEVER saw him while hunting. Not sure if I would rather not know what is there, or know what is there and then not see him during hunting time.
