There are a lot of bow hunters near me. The problem is homeowners don't want guys tracking bloody prints through their backyards.

Yeah, deer are a plague. I'm surprised its not year-round open season.

It's ridiculous. The house across the street has 10-15 deer munching away on grass and weeds every morning when I walk the dogs. Most people around here have given up on vegetable gardening. We haven't, but we live with a state prison like fence around our little patch.
