[QUOTE="BHC, post: 3637458, member: 10391"] Here is some comparisons ive done to look at preseason numbers vs. post season numbers. This hopefully gives us an idea of where we stand. Also will give us a good of whether we are seeing decreases or increases from yr to yr. 2011 Post Season Survey Based on the unique bucks identified and their age structure, we have approx. 227 deer, 105.6 bucks and 122.21 does within the area of the report. Deer density: 14 acres/deer Buck to Doe ratio: 1 buck : 1.16 does Fawn recruitment: 57% Buck Age Sturucture: 1.5 yr old= 60% = 63 2.5 yr old = 22% = 23 3.5 yr old = 10% = 11 4.5+ yr old = 7% = 7 - 18 bucks 3+ yrs old 2013 Post Season Survey 99 bucks 116 does Total pop. 260 deer 45 fawns Buck to doe ratio = 1:1.17 Acres/deer = 12.7 for every 1 ( that is 1 deer per 12.7 acres) Deer/sq. mile = 50.5 Buck Age Structure: 1.5 yr old = 55% = 54 2.5 yr old = 32.6% = 32 3.5 yr old = 7.9% = 8 4.5+ yr old = 4.5 % = 4 -12 bucks 3+ yrs old Number of Preseason Bucks 3+ yrs old: *Based on Post season data + Harvest Data Inserted: *Preseason-Mineral Lick Numbers: 2011=23 2011 = 26 2012=No Post Season Survey 2012 = 21 2013= 23 2013 = 26 When looking at the 3+ yr old buck numbers we have to consider our number of cameras, and camera sights have increased greatly from 2011-2013. Which probably contributes to the increase in population shown. Unfortunately the trend didn't follow for 3+ yr old bucks.... [/QUOTE]
