[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5790162, member: 17"] I guess I need to explain what our "sanctuary cover" looks like. It is 8-foot tall blackberries and saplings and greenbrier that is virtually impossible to force your way into. Forcing your way through is 5 minutes of forcing and much lost skin and blood per 10-feet. It would take a machete and chain mail armor to get into these places. How would you set a camera in that? Visibility is 2-3 feet. As for sanctuaries (on private property) being overrated, they absolutely can be made too large. In my opinion, any patch of extremely thick cover habitat exceeding about 50 acres is too large. Deer CAN spend a large amount of time in an area that big. Personally, I don't like to see individual sanctuaries exceeding about 20 acres. When we cut 100 acres of timber, we did it 7 blocks, the largest of which is 20 acres. [/QUOTE]
