So there has already been a pretty comprehensive study done in Northeast Utah on feeding deer. They have collared deer that weren't fed and then collared deer that were fed last winter and other badd winters. So they had a pretty good control group. The study shows the difference in survival...
My buck from this year. His body was really small and his one side looks like a five point whitetail with a cheater and the other like a mule deer. Barely had any nuts they were the size of BBs. Then when I gutted him he had another nut that hadn't dropped attached to his tenderloin. Weird buck.
Maybe after this winter but I'd imagine most outfitters in G and H will be in the same boat. You might be better off finding an outfitter on the east side of the state where the winterkill wasn't as bad.
