[QUOTE="Smo, post: 4528486, member: 12078"] I own only 79 acres, there are several other landowners surrounding me who own much more land than me. We all collectively agreed to harvest only older 8 point bucks or better The properties I’m refering to make up 1500 to 2000 acres, including my 79. These properties are owned my 5 or 6 individuals. The problem is there are others in the area who rent, or own land that do not adhear to our course of management. One Guy in our neck of the woods owns 5 acres. This Guy shoots anything he sees, and I can’t say that I blame him. The man has 4 small kids 8 yo and under . A Wife and Mother in his house and he works on a farm. I’m sure if it wasn’t for the deer meat his Family would not eat as well as they do. You can’t blame a man for feeding his Family. In my oppion between Guys like I’m talking about, and road hunters managing small parcels of land is almost impossible. The buck “We” don’t shoot today, leaves one for a hungry Family or a poacher to kill tomorrow . By the way , I see more bucks 2.5 to 3.5 yo than I do Does on my property. I still go by “ our” neighborhood agreement but feel like it’s not helping much. Our agreement originally was 8 points or better. Not just for “mature” bucks. [/QUOTE]
