The “kings” deer are running. Be careful there are many smears on the roads marking hits. It’s the “kings” deer until you hit it. Then good luck getting the king’s men to pay for your damage or worse. But shoot one “poach” as they say, or mistake a smaller buck for a doe and you may be in trouble. Come on game commission, thin the herds.
