Harvesting the right deer and the right amount of
correct deer can have more influence on your hunting results than any other habitat
management plan you can implement. It depends upon a manager's goals, but
most should try for a balance – an even buck to doe ratio and a uniform age structure
usually produces the best results. In the wild it can be hard to achieve a
50/50 buck to doe ratio, but that's what you should strive for. You want both bucks and does
of all age classes. If you've never experienced this balance, you've never seen hunting
as good as it can get!
