I hunt southeast of park rapids and saw only one doe running across the road, going into town friday before opener.I think the dnr is scamming us by inflating the number of deer out there so people will get excited and go out and purchase a license and bonus tags where they are able to.Since they did not get that 1/2 cent tax,I think they are looking for other ways to raise money.You figure there are 400,000-500,000 hunters out there that they should be able to slaughter the deer and yet I read in the paper that hunting succes was down all over the state except around the Aitkin/Hill city area,where the cwd scare started.Just my opinion.anyone else think so?
