RE: QDM or not?
With only 200 acres that you could potentially control, I feel that you are probably going to be fighting an uphill battle. Deer will be spending more time off of your 200 acres than they will on it and if the neighbors won't contribute to your goal of trophy hunting (as well as the possible dissention in your own core club), everybody is going to be mad all the time. The value of your group as friends is probably worth more than the possibility of growing a trophy buck.
