There are 3 land owners in So Cullman Co who own and cooperate on over 12000 contiguous acs. Parts are in enclosures but a most is managed free range. There are several other hunting clubs & smaller landowners mixed in. Another 2000 is contiguous just across river in Blount Co. Same deer herd. As a comparison…..I think some of it may have been sold or split but Sedgefield Plantation alone is/was 13,500 acres. Now that’s just one of several hunting plantations in Bullock Co….. Branch out from there in every direction and there are endless amounts of landowners who own 600 acre…. 800 acres……1700 acres……4,000 acres…..Hell, I’ve got two “neighbors” who own over 5,000 acres each myself. That makes a HUGE difference compared to an area where the habitat is fragmented with lots of individual 40-80 acre “farms”. You may have a decent area of the county where there is some good habitat, but from a county wide basis, the potential for having a large deer population is going to be limited by that factor.
