I hunt in ****** County and I was in EAB, T-ZONE, And prime AG Tag Area. I went out and sat last Thursday and seen 22 does and fawns in a seven acre hay field at the same time. Then I had one buck and five does fifteen yards behind me in a corn field. I don't think there is deer shortage. I was asked to go shoot some does off our local golf course. So a buddy and I scouted it from the truck and seen over fifty plus deer in one field and they were still coming out. Bucks, does, turkeys, golfer's. There is so many deer, they have to rake the sand traps three times a day. Don't think there is a shortage just a lot of public hunters chasing everything into private.
