By the way, where did your grandpa go out west in the 70s to get that mule deer?

If anything , it's possible that they may actually be getting smaller in the future due to loss of habitat and the decline of farming . Less ag crops means lower amounts of quality forage for them , less woods means less wild mast . Both translate to reduced numbers of deer survivng the lean months and potentially smaller racks . I saw very few deer during my teens in the 70s , but the bucks I saw back then seemed fatter and may have had larger antlers than the ones I see today . We had a lot more woods and farms back then . With Bio fuels being the future that pushes our vehicles around, farming should start booming big time, especially here in the Midwest. Lug
