Around here they should limit the Buck harvest. In town there are probably 50 does to each buck.

Nope, they should just require all ranchers to high fence their property and manage how they want.....and then also require put and take hunts to reduce the whitetail hunting pressure...

We have never killed a doe on our place and unfortunately may never. We need every doe we have. Predators and drought, overharvest in previous years, etc have given us a density of probably 1 deer per 30-40 acres. Funny thing is, more bucks than doe. It may sound impossible but it's true. Our bucks fight hard and broken antlers are the norm, even early in the season.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
