1/1/19 Update
We were able to shoot another doe and cull buck over the weekend which puts us at 6 doe and 2 cull bucks for the year. Unfortunately we haven't seen the big 12 in quite some time but I don't think he has been shot by anyone so fingers crossed. We put out 1,000lbs of cottonseed and filled all of the protein feeders. The oat/wheat plots are getting hammered right now. We had nearly 20 deer in our 3 acre field two evenings in a row. Here are some pictures of the fields:
As you can see the fields aren't very tall due to the browsing pressure but there is still a lot of forage.
I'm hoping our neighbors were able to really hammer the doe this year to help us reduce the population.
