Awww sorry you missed your doe. A nice big doe, especially a dry doe is good eating! I'd rather one of those any day over a buck (like my dad always said..."you can't eat the bloody rack!" lol)

It's great they are increasing the hunting on that population. There's nothing sadder than overpopulated deer. They starve, reproduce poorly and tend to get all sorts of disease issues. Since we managed to kill or drive off all their natural predators I think responsible hunting and controlled culling an overly large herd is the best way to keep them healthy.

Darn now I'm wanting a good venison roast and some homemade jerky!
