The one section of Game Lands that we worked on is 55,000 acres, it is bordered by another Game Lands that is 49,000 acres, and another Game Lands that is 9000 acres, and a State Park that is 31,000 acres.....nothing but big woods in the mountains...no agriculture, no old fields/pastures reverting back. When the state does timber sales on the land they fence the in the keep the deer out. The food plots we planted were all fire roads that are closed to general vehicular traffic. and post hunting season deer densities of less than 10 dpsm. Thats a whole different ball game than what you are living with. A big chunk of woods by you is what a couple hundred acres at most? and from what you say about your densities....its not even close to what i'm talking about.
