RE: GOOD NEWS PA. HUNTERS.
Bowhunter,DCNR isn't calling the shots.Yes they were told do do what ever was politically necessary to get the herd reduced.That's right on their website and it was imperative that they did that to keep their forest certification.No doubt politics were involved.However,last year the PGC reduced the allocations in 2f and 2F byover 40% and DCNR threw a fit about that.They also wantedto allow baiting,group hunting and no limit placed on the amount of dmap tags an individual could get.The PGC didn't cave into any of that and greatly reduced the allocations last year,despite DCNR'S wishes.As you can see,DCNR isn't calling the shots but it's easy to imagine the situation if they were.
