Default How do control deer numbers?

I always read about people who practice QDM taking out a lot of does and the bucks that don' t cut the mustard. How is this done legally? In PA, we can take one buck and a doe if we' re lucky enough to draw a tag. If you have 10 guys on 1000 acres, you really can' t legally thin the heard too much. I also wondered how hunters find " management bucks" . If someone told me I had a couple of bucks on my property that needed to be taken out, there' s no way I' d be able to find them on command. It sounds so easy and routine in the magazines. What' s the real scoop?
