Dale, I personally never want to see the deer numbers there once was. Where I hunt we used to see 200 deer a day "easy",back in the 70's to mid 80's, driving deer . Of the MANY MANY MANY deer we saw we would be lucky to see 1- 3" spike amongst all the doe. Now we might see 20-40 deer a day and the odds of seeing a nice buck are very good.

I Never want to go back to the way it was!!! I am happy seeing 6-12 deer a day with the MUCH better chance of seeing a really nice buck amongst those that I do see. And If I dont see anything (as it turns out some days)...Oh well, I dont let that ruin the time I have to hunt. Makes me more anxious to get out the next day.
