2013 winter kill....
I just returned from an area near Caroline where I WT hunted last year. Things do not look good for WT numbers. Looks like the local WT population took a big hit last winter. Locals tell me that between the deep snow and increased predators the deer got hammered.
Anyone else seeing the same thing?

i have to ask..and not being ignorant here....
going out once doesnt really determine a problem does it?
maybe the wild horse population is in compettion for food?
why is it we look for excuses..its too hot, it was too cold, too many poachers, too much snow, not enough snow, people complaining that there are no big bucks but refuse to let a 150" walk because someone else will shoot it, filling doe tags and so on.
maybe its because there is less and less habitat with higher and higher hunter concentration.
be happy you got to enjoy the day, dont give up on the area.
