[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 4379011, member: 2805"] Agree mostly... but if the hunter on 600 acres (which is nothing when it comes to managing for deer) has 10 other people shooting brown is down, and the neighbors are shooting brown is down, there's virtually no chance at a mature buck; while if the hunter on 20 acres is surrounded by a couple thousand acres where deer are managed for age can limit out on mature bucks every year. I know I'd pick the 20 acres to hunt in that scenario every single time. you have to remember... you need a couple thousand contiguous acres to have a chance of a deer staying on a particular property. Less than that and you are relying on neighbors to pass immature deer or neighbors that do not hunt. [/QUOTE]
