Earn a buck works for me, it lets the young bucks mature. Maybe a doe only season state wide would improve the ratio, but with so much land being tied up in private it is hard to control the herd ratio. While talking to a warden in the LaCrosse area he stated some of the areas surveyed had 32 deer in a square mile yet down the road they only had 9. Out by Menards on CTH SS we counted 86 deer feeding in a 34 acre field (posted land and within city limits). Acsess is the biggest problem with good management.
