well in georia,you are allowed to shoot 2 bucks and 8 does,that shows how many does there are.i believe you have to shoot does so when the rut comes around, the big bucks have to get up and move around to find does,if there are so many does around he doenst have to move at all to mate and therefor you wont see him as much,but if there are less does that means he has to roam alot to find them,given you a chance to kill him and you will have bigger bucks spreading their genes then smaller ones gettting alot of does pregnant.
