[QUOTE="BSK, post: 5588667, member: 17"] Only problem with that theory is, I'm seeing a massive increase in bucks on the place. In 2021 and 2022 we set new records for the number of unique bucks on camera, many of them older to mature. But why the huge increase in does using the food plots? At all other locations, including terrain funnels, habitat bottlenecks, trails, old roadbeds, etc. I'm not seeing a big spike in does. Sex ratio has stayed somewhat constant at those locations. The only place I'm seeing the spike in doe numbers - and I believe most of that is simply due to their long feeding times each visit - is in food plots. During the same time period, we have vastly increased the natural browse on the property. I'm shocked the does spend so much time in the food plots when so much other food is available. [/QUOTE]
