When I bought this place 3 years ago, I could only identify 5 resident doe and 7 bucks. The previous owners decimated the doe population.
I have been putting in a lot of work to improve the habitat. Mowing, native grass management and of course, food plots. My daughters have taken a few bucks but the doe have been off limits. As you can see here, my efforts are paying dividends. There are 11 doe/fawns in this picture and one 2 1/2 year old buck. On the south end of the property, I’ve got another 10 doe/fawns. We have a few doe on the hit list this year. One old nag in particular that is barren and a real beotch.
It is nice to see your hard work pay off and as I sit here and watch 3 fawns run like crazy, playing chase without a care in the world, I am glad to have made things better for them.
