Thanks 1983, haven’t read up on the articles but have wondered if there was a correlation. I mentioned earlier in the thread that my guess was a reproductive problem. I have read the neonic affects on turkey poults but have not read up on reproductive correlations.
Are they talking much of a market for coons this year? I know reducing coon numbers is primary but didn’t know if anyone will but them? Most I have talked to either aren’t buying or are pretty low on the big sizes.
I meant no disrespect to him. That wasn’t a jab at him at all. Sorry if I was offensive but what I meant is we all hear not me when the question is raised but it is something.
Interesting comment and what I would expect from involved chemical company. Not saying enlist is culprit turkey numbers are down in a huge area. Deer numbers down in fairly large area and I have read several articles discussing the song bird population decline. Related IDK…
I agree there is a problem in SWIA NWMO. Numbers way down. EHD is a factor no doubt but something is wrong with reproduction IMO. Is it chemicals, coyotes or something else IDK. Skip and I have disagreed on the coyotes before but I have hunted and trapped for years in this area and coyotes...
I would say the deer spoiled overnight. If the shot was anywhere through the guts that would even make me more sure. We had some warm days and nights through most of the season. If it was a 45-50 degree night like we had I would lean toward spoiled meat and not infection. JMO.
The only part of the explanations that don’t add up is that the harvest has not drastically increased. Does anyone know where to find the license sale data? I get the more days afield shows more pressure, specifically on public lands but the harvest data has been roughly 99 K to 109.5K in last...
Depending on where you are located, which version of Tactacam and what signal you are using I am guessing signal issue. Verizon is a huge cell provider and they bought out a lot of local providers and started taking them over in September and my cell cams and cell phone service has been spotty...
Are they forgetting that over 50% of popular vote was for TRUMP so maybe they should be offering celebration parties as the majority voted for this outcome…. Are these public universities that get public funding to hire therapists for this.
How much penetration? I have read that they survive single lung hits but I have also blood trailed several that in some shape or form were undoubtedly one lung. If little to no penetration through the shoulder they will live for sure. But if you tear up one lung, the arrow stays in for any...
Had a neighbor tell my brother that he saw his target buck acting goofy and stumbling and struggling to get up. Went back to look couple hours later and he was gone or just dead/laid up in tall CRP or wooly ditch. He went back to look in the bottom of the ditch today and found five more that...
Like 1983 has said one lung hits suck, if that is what it was. Going that far you know it did not double lung. As 1983 stated high percentage of deer eventually die from one lung hits but seems like all I know of end up way away from where expect them to be expecting they live for awhile...
This question has ran through my head this year often. Had couple deer make it through last year and would hit the 5/6 yo mark. Don H was predicting stellar growth this year with easy winter and decent growing year outside of late summer turning dry when we had decent food from the adequate...
