I'm confused? You're not seeing the numbers of deer you saw 5 or 10yrs ago? And it's because the liberal doe days, extended season dates and corn piles. Well, just because the season is extended to mid feb, don't mean errone in your club gotta hunt. Maybe get together and quit shooting does? Maybe put a pile of corn out in the center of the property to help hold some does? I'll say this too, used to hunt owned land in that bordered wheeler refuge. This was back in the 90's thru say 2005. Was all cotton back then and deer everywhere. Bow only on the refuge, but folks took a buncha does out every year. Nothing really has changed other than the farming went to grains instead of cotton and a few more houses have been built. Same bow only on refuge and very selective harvesting on private ground and you can't hardly see a track anymore. All those deer weren't harvested. Had to be some disease or other predators that reduced their numbers so incredibly. Same with quail (but the state ain't gonna reduce the bag limit on those unicorns).
