Way to go Diller! Trenery area hasn't been none for much quality in the past. Hopefully the DNR will take notice of that. What is your take on deer registration just out of curiousity? I would like to see some sort of registration initiative besides the voluntary one currently in place. I think that if the state really wants to take management seriously, we need to have a registration procedure to get a more accurate count of total harvest, and to also get a much better idea of the composition of the harvest. And yes, anyone who hears about any kind of QDM, put it up on here! Good luck in the coming weeks!
Once agian I have to agree with you on that. Not once has the state ever asked me how many deer I shot that year or what they were! How in the hell do they get these bull**** figures about the number of deer taken? Many many hunters buy tags and never even shoot a deer, so it cant be that. I know they have some percentage of this and that dived by that multiplied by bull****. QDM works, thats all there is too it/ also forces people to take more does. The does must be leveled everywhere. I shot 5 does last year, and all that meats ussually gone by July.
Bownutty, I also have to agree with you about the voting. It's all a cluster F**k. Younger hunters may need a incentive of some kind, but that will take some thought on how to regulate that. My grandpa took a spike last year but hes pushing 90 and its good to see him shoot something. And dont even get me started on PETA. argh!
I think we all need a poker table and a couple 30 packs and we can figure out all the states problems.
