Does FCS go on day deer hunts?

FCS rarely goes on day deer hunts, as a lot of day leases are over hunted and most of our deer hunters are either on season or year-round leases, or own their own land, so they’re not interested in also going on day deer hunts.  They’ve invested a lot of money in stands, feeders, corn, and maintaining their lease, so they have no interest in paying to hunt a place somewhere else that has worse odds (because they’re over hunted) than the places that they’re season or year-round leasing.  Plus deer hunting is expensive.

Since 1988, we’ve only had five semi-guided day deer hunts.  Randy Rowley, who is the event coordinator for big game hunts, only arranges day deer hunts with people that he knows (and who have let him know that they’re willing to let FCS hunters hunt on their land).
