Some of our IW members, both bow and gun hunters, feel that the deer numbers are down significantly in their hunting areas or counties this year. These hunters are reporting seeing less antlerless deer and fewer quality bucks than they did two to three years ago.
Some boots on the ground IDNR officers have also voiced their concern for the deer population and the quality of the hunting experience here in Iowa.
Yet, the decision makers at the top of the IDNR have stated that they want to reduce the deer population in Iowa to the early 1990’s population levels. So if you believe that the numbers in your area are down now wait a year or two.
Don’t forget to contact the members of the “Deer Study Committee” and let them know your thoughts.
So, what do you think? Do you feel that the deer population in your hunting area or county is too low, too high, or at the right carrying capacity?
Please feel free to voice your opinions; we are after all getting near the “time to contact your legislators”.
