According to who? Can't be that hard given the fact that you claim to have killed over 200 of them there.
I have not claimed to have killed over 200 deer in the Adirindacks. That would be impossible to do legally in two lifetimes. There are no doe tags available in the Adirondacks due to low deer numbers. I have hunted all across NYS, from the Catskills to the Adirondacks to the farmlands of central NY and the finger lakes region. It's the farmlands that have high deer numbers and doe tags available year after year. I have friends and relatives who own property in those areas and have gone there to fill multiple doe tags nearly every year. The Adirondacks are considered some of the toughest deer hunting in the country by pretty much everybody who knows anything about deer hunting in the continental US, which you and several of your dunce buddies here obviously do not.
