    Luckily not too close to either. Closer to the older cases. But @BenA and native would be close to the new one.

    Are the glory days of deer hunting coming to a close?

    Same! When I saw my first buck walk into a field during rifle season I was baffled, and honestly disheartened. They just didn’t do that in my mind. But once you start looking at aerials it’s evident they have no choice. From you, west there’s just isn’t enough big blocks of timber to keep them...
