With the rainfall amounts we got this spring, I would think we have a good recruitment year for fawns, which would make me think that taking older does and yearlings would be okay to help keep the numbers in check.

Originally posted by JeffJ View PostPretty much inline with what I was thinking:
8 bucks:
Including one 6yo+ trophy i.e shoot the biggest deer on the ranch
Potentially including any 6yo+ that has either gone down hill or is undesireable
Anything over 3yo that we find undesireable(weak tines, crabclaws, super narrow).
5 does: All yearlings.
Overall our herd composition was 48% bucks, 28% does, 24% fawns.
One deer per 8.88 acres.
All that said Im sure we will shoot all the doe numbers. I doubt we get all our bucks killed.
