22% in a year isn't some anomaly that can be explained away, except to say that there are fewer deer in MN now than there were last year. The reason for that is several bad winters in a row, coupled with very liberal doe permits for years and years and years in many units. .....and far more predators than at any point in my lifetime. Bears, wolves, coyotes.....stupid. The deer never catch a break.

lol I'd be with you on everything but archery season. In another few years I may even agree with you on that.

Shut the whole damn thing down and let the herd recover. That's basically what'll happen whether they do it or not. The exodus from zone 1 is picking up speed. I feel for the guys in zone 2, because that's where all those orange refugees are headed.

I have 25 trail cams on 7 properties in Minnesota and it’s down period! No doubt about it !

We all have different interests. Enjoy what you have!

If we can't have venison, we'll have pancakes and liquor.
