My uncle had a farm in Milford, MI. He raised a buck that was released in the 50's or 60's. Had cool stories about that deer. I loved hunting his farm, deer, ducks, pheasants, quail, frog, pigeons, starlings.....we were killing machines in the 70's out there.
When were whitetail deer established in Michigan?
According to the search results, whitetail deer were introduced to Michigan through a series of releases between 1934 and 1942. During this period, 296 deer were purchased from Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina and released throughout the state. Additionally, between 1953 and 1955, 111 deer were released throughout the state, with the last releases occurring in Sullivan and Ripley counties.
Listen to your elders. Not because they are always right but because they have more experiences of being wrong.
