RE: Deer overpopulation in St. Louis County
Angus, about those big bucks...my friend lives in a fairly large subdivision in Eureka around Six Flags. His yard butts up to a large patch of woods (150 acres) that sees little to no pressure. We set up a feeder about 50 yds. into the woods their last year and on nights would see 5-6 bucks at a time with one monster 12 in velvet that was beautiful. There were also several 8's a 6 and some 4's. Too bad we live so close but we cant hunt it. The only thing the property owners will let us do in mushroom hunt.
Oh well at least we get to see some great animals in our backyard.
