[QUOTE="X-Tennessean, post: 3862859, member: 7181"] They seem excessive in my bottom this year as well for some reason. I have killed 5 in the last two weeks deer hunting, usually average 2-3 at most during daylight hours in a season. Not sure what is going on this year. I would say trapping is the only true method to controlling them and a commitment to the job. I have a friend in Mo who is a full time trapper, he does really well and is committed to the sport. He has been hired by some big time farm managers. I set him up with a guy who hired Grant Woods to come in and analyze his farm for wildlife habitat deer/ducks. That was the first thing out of his mouth was do you have any predator control in process ? He suggested him start a program first and foremost before worrying about plots, herd management etc etc. He hired my friend and the last time I talked to him, he had caught 18 bobcats, nearly 40 yotes and countless coons, skunks etc etc. This is on around 900 acres of mix timber and row crop with some crp ground as well. I'm curious to see how the numbers compare to last year at the end of this season. [/QUOTE]
