But I will add for they ney sayers of QDM...I am a firm believer in it. When we first started hunting the area that we hunt there were so many deer it was unbelievable. There was not a time we went out and did not see 20-30 deer. But in those they were so tiny. The does didn't weigh much more than 75lbs and buck were poor. After 6-7 yrs we are seeing less deer but the ones that we see are much heathier and are much bigger. The does now weigh 100 lbs give or take a little. Bucks are heavier and look much better. It does work. I don't care if you have 10 acres or 10,000 acres if you are a firm believer in it, the surrounding neighbors will somewhat join in.
