Germain,

The only problem with all those "no deer" stories floating around is that lots of the folks telling those stories eventually trip up and later admit that they filled their tag. Have had that happen a number of times when the most radical no deer folks on here later just happened to casually let it drop that they had taken nice bucks or passed on opportunities to take nice buck, does, etc in areas that they had earlier described as wastes of time to hunt.
