Deer Population Concerns

[longpointer]

I've been seeing the usual amount of deer here in 90B but I only hunt the Controlled Shotgun in November so can't comment on antlerless draw which I assume is for Bow hunting. There is a theory that a lot of applicants are not following all the directions properly and think they've entered but because of one missed step they didn't ?

According to the mnr web site, the same quota of doe tags was issued this year compared to last year for 88, 89 and 90

Same for 73, second year in a row at 100%.

I have cams out in the north end of 68b, deer numbers seem average but am also seeing yotes continuously as well.

That's good to hear that everyone is still seeing good numbers for the most part. In my area I can remember 15-20 years ago at dusk there would be deer in every field, in the last 10 years I rarely see any. Tracks of bush that had highways of trails barely have any sign. They're still around but not close to the numbers that used to be here. I did just score permission on another farm that has some good sign, just threw some cameras up and we will see!
