Bachelor buck groups stay hidden a lot more-so than doe groups do. So based purely on the habits of deer, you will generally see a lot less bucks than doe's.

If the deer population is out of control, that generally means one or more of the following will occur:

1. Meat hunters are gonna have a GREAT year
2. A lot of deer will die of starvation during the winter
3. You will have a low fawn birth rate in the spring
