I think yall covered it habitats become inhabitable Not enuf land management byDEC ie. clearing of state land to encourage browse, controlled burning to encourage newfood supplies, too short a season..especially when the weather is just too damn warm not allowing for enuf culling. and us poor bowhunters having to pay$35 for big game and archery...like theres a rut going on in October!!( WE SHOULD only have to pay $3 more to cover big game too.. Infairness 19.00 should cover it all rifle, bow, and smokepoles ..with all that money we spend yearly youd think theyd think and do as weve stated....or maybe they dont know anything but collecting money and paying their salaries
Im sure there a several logging companies that will clear out lands just for the profit theyll make...The state doesnt have to spend a dime. Just grant them access and tell them where to start and stop,,,seems simple,,huh??
State land is just that ..land.... in need of clearing to help complete ecosystems not just to better the deer hunters chances. It also wouldnt hurt to have a few more man made lakes either...where is all that money going??Im writing my letter to the state>>>> New York State that is..But I guess land management by the govv't applies to every state ..................Good harvest and safe journey to all my brothers in the field
