I would but as you know, I'm very shy and not an out-going type of person. Also, there is nothing to fear from any government entity, be it federal, state or local.

Wanna Be trapper W Joined: May 2018 SW Georgia	Originally Posted by 3togo Illinois has written in the regs that they control the deer population to maintain no more than 11% deer/vehicle collisions. Once the doe permits started years ago, the buck sightings for me drastically were reduced. In general, hunters shoot does if legal then complain they aren't seeing many deer. I grew up and lived in rural NYS until 2004. We had great deer hunting, including all age of bucks. UNTIL the state implemented doe permits due to vehicle collisions. Insurance companies run more that your health benefits.. It got real slim pickin's within 4 years to find a buck. I’ve read your post 3 times I think. Are you saying shooting does reduces bucks? Or reduces overall numbers? Down here we shoot all the does we want and have a lot of great bucks to choose from. If you shoot all your young bucks you won’t have bucks to shoot, the same as shooting jakes and then not having any gobblers.

The biggest misconception most non residents make is oh your in Illinois big deer are east lol anything but easy and I’m sure Iowa is the same. The most successful put in the hours just that simple.
