Also, carrying capacity, say your farm can feed 100deer a year, if your ratio is 90does and 10bucks, a better ratio of 50/50 would incread the # of bucks on your property 5X! So in fact getting that ratio 50/50 can increase the # of bucks running around your property!

My view is, if you shoot a buck, shoot a doe, at least this way over time mother nature will do her work....of course neighbors and other hunters will naturally harvest more bucks than does probably, so you may want to take 1.5 or 2 does for every buck you shoot, least early on...then taper to a 1:1
