[QUOTE="dean nelson, post: 141881, member: 1305"] But it is one of the deepest snow packs to start off a winter in many years. Where were you in 04 to 07 vs 12 to 15 because if you don't think winter storms cant take out the strong you sure the hell couldn't have been in north dakota to watch as 80% of the deer were taken out! Now deer have a harder time finding food and due to deep snow are burning more calories in the process of finding it. When you start that process like we have this year if we don't get a real break during Jan or Feb we may well desamate a herd that is well short of recoverd from our last bad winters. Even if a deer squeaks through if the does are stressed they will abort next year's fawn/fawns and that has a huge and long lasting effect. Opinion means nothing here because this is all best guess on available information and right now ALL info is pointed in the wrong direction including the long term forecast that just came out.
