I don't have a problem going a little deeper into the Game Lands at all to find a deer. In fact, I lrelish the idea. The problem Ihave is that when I go in that extra mile or so I don't see Vern Ross or Mike Schmit. I've neverencountered Cal DuBrock. I looked for Rus Schleiden, Roxane Palone, John Reilly and Greg isabella. None of those people were there, deep in the Game Lands woods.

My guess is that they don't hunt the Game Lands or State Parks. I know that Roxane Palone hunts her mother's farm. I know that Rus Schleiden hunts his own very large farm, and I know that Greg Isabella hunts private land. Jerry Feaser hunted on Joe Neville's family farm this year.Even the great Dr. Gary Alt hunted his families farm.

So how could they possibly know what the conditions are like on the Game Lands and the State Parks?

There's nothing like first hand experience, is there?.
