Humphreys took a real beating from EHD in '07. The population hasn't recovered yet.

Because their harvest have fallen off for several years. Hardin county harvest was at 3325,2631,2425 for the last three years. It got hit hard by EHD and hasn't recovered. Quota permits were unchanged for this period. Benton county harvest was 1952, 1768, 1771 for the last three years even though 400 quota permits where added for the last year. Perry county harvest peaked in back in 1998. Last years harvest was the same as 1988 (1050). Perry is a sort of mystery that we will hopefully understand better with thermal surveys. Until harvest's recover and we understand the populations better we probably won't propose moving these counties to unit L.

Great summary RecurveShooter.
Perry County is a mystery to me as well. I have quite a few clients in northern Perry County and the area has loads of deer--equal to or exceeding Humphreys County. Yet the harvest totals are low every year. I don't get it.

Interesting, because Perry has a great deal of public property providing good hunter opportunity doesnt it? It will be interesting to see what the thermal studies show!

It used to. It used to have a lot of timber company land open to hunting. But much of that timber company land has been broken up and sold to individual owners (in fact, that's most of my client base in the area--the new owners of that land).
In fact, that may be one reason for declining harvests--fewer people hunting those big chunks of land.

Yet the harvest totals are low every year. I don't get it. My place is about 5 miles east of "Downtown"Lobellville.From the trail cam pics and observations in the stand,I seem to be loaded.Taken 2 does so far and there are plenty left.
Most of my clients are close to that area, but west of Lobelville, towards the lake. Also two right on the Humphreys County line near the Buffalo River.

Grundy County had a nice increase in does being harvested. I saw more deer last year than ever before. 5 people on a 900+ acre lease with 7 bucks 8 point or better being taken in 08. Over populated with does creates an exciting day during the rut.
