Subject: Hunting deer with dogs
Hello:
Let me begin by saying that Lord knows we have way too many deer in Chatham County. However, I don’t think there is enough open space left in the county, especially in the northern and northwestern part of the county, to provide good dog-based deer hunting.
Twenty years ago this might have been a viable option, but with the influx of many more people into Chatham, this doesn’t seem to be a good plan.
I am VERY open to deer hunting, as I have had to abandon gardening because of deer, but still hunting works quite well if you know what you’re doing.
