I don't know what I'd do in your situation. I can only say this: Here in southern Michigan where I live the deer have become somewhat of a nuisance. There were none here when I was growing up in the '40's and early '50's, everyone who wanted to hunt deer had to go to the northen regions of the state and that was just fine. It was a real adventure to "go up north hunting deer"(four legged ones). When the deer migrated down here most everyone was excited about it for a few years, farmers included, but now the deer cause the farmers a lot of crop loss, cause an awful lot of deer/car accidents, and having hunters roaming all over during the different seasons-bow, muzzle loader,slingshot, ballbat, shotgun, buck, doe, yearling, etc. is somewhat of a pain in the a-- too. I do hope the deer are eventually eradicated and if it takes a lot of hunters and longer seasons to do it, so be it. Sorry, the deer are beautiful animals and certainly of God's creation, but they don't belong in intensive farming areas any more than they belong in intensely populated areas. If they could be fenced out, fine, but they can't, so they just shouldn't be where people are trying to make a living farming. If it gets much worse, no one in their right mind will try to make a living farming anyhow, that's the bottom line.

The answer to our needs materialized in the form of a '44 Farmall A, complete with cultivators, discs, single plow, a 5ft.Woods belly mower and one, mounted spare 9.00x24 rear wheel.
