One of the best things about this approach is that you don’t need everyone to subscribe to it or understand it…….you just need ENOUGH folks to where everyone else can still have their opinions and do as they please but just not have the ability to mess things up as bad…….They can fill the freezers……”manage” does……yada, yada, yada....for whatever reason……just as long there’s enough people who DON’T….so that the county totals stay below a level where we want them

I'm skeptical that you'd have enough participation to make much of an impact on the county level.

Not shooting does is a pretty easy thing to do… grin Quite a few of the plantations have virtually already done this even if it isnt in a fully organized form like I’m laying it out……Many of them shut down doe harvest this year across large acreages and doe harvest levels came way down…..So now if doe harvest levels stay at 1900 ish does for Bullock County and 1400 ish for Macon and 2100 ish for Russell moving forward..…which is about what they were before the big increase…Is there any reason for the plantations to change course next year??.......I'm gonna say probably not.....Somebody has to compensate for all the extra slaying and "managing"

Don’t get me wrong when I say “don’t shoot any does”…..I’m not meaning that as in completely zero does …..Its meaning no “quotas” where every club and plantation tries to take out 60 does here and 80 does there just to be taking them out………Shut that chit off as long as county wide harvests are sufficient enough to meet the county level goal……

I understand that. But in my opinion if it's done on a voluntary or cooperative basis that it wouldn't work. You would only be growing deer for your neighbors. If you had several large tracts of land joining one another and all parties were on board then that would be beneficial for your immediate area, but I don't even think that would help on the county level.

Why not just manage your property.

You give them what they need and don’t shoot at every deer that walks out like most clubs do and you’ll see plenty of deer.

My neighbor has 60 acres and the does around my house are almost pets. But he don’t shoot at them every time they walk out.

Its really a bonus for a big club or landowner to have the other surrounding hunters "manage" the does……Shooting a bunch of does just to meet a quota adds a lot of extra hunting pressure to a property that doesn’t have to occur if the folks in the surrounding area are already shooting enough for everyone…..
