Harvest Ratios
I just came into a piece of land about 1000 acres. I' ve had it for about 3 years and have shot some nice sized 8 and 10 piont deer. The problem is that I know that I have too many doe in relation to bucks because I saw groups of 4-6 doe in a group two years ago and there are nearly 10 to a group this year with fewer buck signs. I plan on having the land surveyed next year but my question is this...on 1000 acre ranch what would be the prime ration of buck to doe to be harvested in a year. ( 1:1 , 1:2) Thanks for any help!
