Default Deer hunters vs Raccoon hunters

For years people were saying coon hunters are not allowed on there land to help out the local farmers. And people still wont because they say the dogs chase deer off there land and on the neighbors. In south carolina they did a study that shows the impact on deer in 2 areas one area dogs could run and one area they werent allowed. I cant even count the different times i walked within 10 yards of a bedded deer and it just stayed there. Deer are goofy at night it seems like. They dont get scared like they do in the day where any other hunting activity is taking place. But just look at the website maybe i can make some of you guys realize us coonhunters are harmless when it comes to deer and to help out a farmer to get coons off his land. Thanks for looking
