Im in East tx and hunting small low or no fence properties. years ago we felt that if we didnt shoot a deer ,someone else would. the only sure thing about that was that the deer got shot. along comes trail cameras and we learn that most deer that made 3 years old would survive until the next year. We created sanctuaries for safety and started adding nutrition..
Virtually every deer we kill at 7 years old now is a deer we have known and passed before. Our average buck is much better than 45 years ago. Large properties are totally different but it is certainly possible to have a management plan that works on very small properties. Age, security, nutrition
