Yeah...after seeing more show up, I'm feeling pretty safe in taking one or two...if I'm lucky.    :pray:    

Must admit...getting excited..lol

If you are sure the population is low, I say let them all live. Are you starving and need meat? I'm guessing no. Let the little one grow up. Nothing saying you must kill a deer. Right?

I've heard it said and believe 100% that deer pattern hunters way better then we pattern deer!

I had one chap buy a 2nd camera, infrared sensor.  Set it up to watch the area of the first flash camera...he caught a BUNCH of deer circling around away from the flash unit...

Wensels say if you put it up high, it doesn't bother them...I'd guess IF a bunch of people have been toddling around with flashlights, light might be a bigger factor.

This situation was on a heavily posted block of 20 acres, and nobody showed up on either camera "toddling around"... they just avoided the flash camera!
The words "Child" and "terminal illness" should never share the same sentence! Those who care-do, others question!
