I live in R6 and spent bunch of time in a R7 unit this year. Deer numbers are pathetic. Whitetail numbers are as bad or worse than mule deer, blows my mind how many whitetail doe tags can be bought. Better hope for some more mild winters and drastic changes from fwp. I can literally hunt out my back door and spent a grand total of ONE day hunting deer this year. And that was helping a friend during the youth season. I will say hunting pressure here was a fair bit better than the last few years, but it is still way too much from bird season through rifle season. That said, don't hate they player, hate the game!
