Rich,SGL 93 gets some pressure during rifle season but nowhere near what it used to.Also,it's pretty easy to get away from the crowds and see plenty of deer.It does get hunted pretty hard though in rifle season but they don't get anywhere near all of them.

4ever,The fact is,the bb harvest is nowhere nearwhat the female harvest rate is.It really doesn't matter what your personal observations are either because others are entrely different.My observations are that less deer get wounded because instead of blasting at the first site of bone,hunters now have to slow downto what they're shooting at.Also,even though we have alot less deer than we used to,I'm seeing way more nice bucks than I did 10 years ago.I'm sure that isn't the same as your observations.I was forced to pass on three bucks that I would have mounted.That's never happened before.
