[QUOTE="Kelljp, post: 5790872, member: 23030"] Back in 1999 timeframe, the 3 farms around my place decided to have an unofficial rule of 8 point or better and mandatory taken of a doe. Within 3 years we were seeing some really nice bucks for East TN. Then in 2019 two pieces of property that joined these farms changed hands and was leased out to hunters from out of town. The feeders and permanent tree stands went up. During covid there was always someone hunting it.The sighting of big bucks are no more. The only positive is we have seen better genetics in the bucks, fewer spikes and more symmetric racks. The idea of managing is noble, but unless your on thousands of acres it's only a pipe dream.
