Alright here's the deal. I am doing an argumentative paper on the benefits QDM (I'm taking the stand that I'm for it) but I want to get everyone's opinion on for it/against it and why or why not. I do not intend for this to be a flame fest or anything of the sort. I appreciate your help. If I'm missing anything let me know.
any input would be greatly appreciated

Can't afford enough land to put my efforts into something I have a hard time controling, meaning the land owners or hunters around me.
It seems to me that I would be the only one sacrificing for many years until I could reap the benifits??!!

Your not allowed to be against QDMA .But if I were this is an example why,
And I copied this from this site.
Becausethis is just nota way of thinking I can agree with. I have no hatred for the deer I soenjoy hunting.

QDMA "¦better deer, better deer hunting
42 acres in the Haymarsh Swamp, near Moorestown, MI.
While I only have 42 acres, I do the best I can. Harvest guidelines are pretty simple, don't shoot yearling bucks. Unless you are out of antlerless permits, kill every doe that stands still long enough to put cross hairs on.

QDM (not antler management) in it's true form is about the animal/species. It may or may not be what hunters want but it's not about hunters. Hunting is all about deer management, we are managers, we manage the herd through hunting licensing and filling tags. Why not manage for a quality herd?
I do my part by harvesting does only,I feel that there are to many does to buck so I harvest doe's,but this is in my area....
Other areas may be differant where QDM may need to be practiced more and some areas where it really iasnt a issue.....
