White-tailed Deer
Our over arching management goal is to help each Ranch achieve its potential in game management be it diversity of game animals, size of males or optimum sex and age ratio’s. We do this by keeping harvest records that include cementum analysis of age, Boone and Crockett scores and phenotypical data. In some instances we also collect fall age and sex data and winter population data.
