Germ, make sure to turn the lights out in the State of Michigan just before you get picked up since you'll be the last one out.

Big mature bucks get that way also for one reason..because they are mainly nocturnal. They are just hiding during the day.. I am sure they are there.

Locally deer numbers are down as well, but that has been awesome for me as a bowhunter. The last three season's (since the dnr's herd reduction idea really started to get implemented) rut has been all very intense. I see less deer but more big bucks - a tradeoff I find worthwhile.

When people learn to stop shooting small bucks every year, they'll have bigger bucks where they hunt. We are not running out of bigger bucks, it's just people don't let bucks get bigger.
