Doe harvest importance stressed on "Kentucky Afield" television this weekend
11/15/07
Frankfort, Kentucky - Kentucky hunters are reminded that trophy bucks are the product of sufficient doe harvest this weekend, November 17 and 18, on "Kentucky Afield" television.
To maintain a proper buck-to-doe ratio in the woods, deer managers with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources need to see one doe harvested for every buck. As modern gun season for white-tailed deer continues this week, does currently represent 48 percent of the harvest. Host Tim Farmer travels to Woodford County to do his part to keep the state's deer herd in balance and put nutritious venison in the freezer.
Elsewhere, we don't find many custom-made fishing rods leaning against the garage wall unless we find ourselves in Ronnie Young's workshop in Corbin. This hobbyist takes us through the process of crafting spinning, casting and fly rods. These masterpieces are unquestionably worthy of being mounted on the wall alongside the fish they help catch.
Lastly, make note of a delicious venison crock-pot recipe that is a favorite around the Farmer household and at the "Kentucky Afield" television studio.
"Kentucky Afield" is a production of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. It is the longest continuously-running outdoor television show in the nation. "Kentucky Afield" airs Saturday at 8:30 p.m. Eastern /7:30 p.m. Central and is repeated on Sunday at 4 p.m. Eastern/3 p.m. Central on KET 1.
