Used to hunt in evergreen and any timber land we hunted on the company required us to shoot a certain amount of does a yr and turn in all jaw bones. Every year they wanted alot of does killed off the land and would get mad if the quota was met. I found it hard to do that when you see one deer ever two or three sets.I guess they knew what they are doing because every yr we killed some great bucks off the property. I have my own lease now and after yrs of managing we have seen our herd go from hardly seeing any deer all yr long to seeing 5 or so deer on every sit. I think all places are different but a few years of letting deer walk makes a big difference.
