We have 2000 acres with 25 members. Hardly anyone shoots does. We might get 5 killed a year. We'll kill 10 bucks or more. We're 6pt or better but the majority of bucks we see are 2.5yr old 8pt.

I've seen 20 different does cross a power line and not a single buck came across. This was probably at least 5 years ago but I know we have to many does.

Everyone wants the horns. Now we do get bucks from all around our lease that come to breed does. The few mature bucks taken had one side fricked up.

One from fighting and the others just grew fricked up. Probably lack of nutrition.

We target the old paranoid bitch does.
They run their young off out of the area and also run young bucks off.
Substantial increase in buck activity since we starting eliminating the old does.
I used to be a “more does in my field better chance of killing a buck” mindset. Proved myself wrong
