Default RE: how often do you see deer

On opening day of rifle season last year, between 7:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m., I counted over 85 deer from my treestand. No joke. Sure, I'm certain that some of them were recycled, but most of them were not... Of those deer, I saw one legal buck- a seven point.
You think we might have an overpopulation and a buck-to-doe ratio problem??? [&:]
My hunting region has finally put some new laws in place this year which will encourage a larger doe harvest. Every year until this one, the first week of gun season was buck only, so the new laws this year should be a step in the right direction.
