How do yall estimate your buck to doe ratio on a property?
I'm hunting on 165ac low-fence ranch and from my game cams it seems like there are several does to every buck I've seen in the last few years. I went down there for Dove day and set up my feeders and cameras and saw the same ratio of deer moving while I was scouting. Ranch is located in Gillespie county.
If there truly is a 1:4 or more ratio, should I harvest all does, and encourage the same from hunting relatives?
TIA.
