Not everybody try.
thats why I said for the most part.. Really speaking honestly, how many hunters do you know that put time into scouting( more than a day) talking with land owners practicing with their gun or bow. The majority on this board probably do these things as our passion brings us here. But thousands of Pa hunters buy a license,the day before they should have their doe tags in, or the day before season starts, buy a box of shells(probably not even the same grain bullet they used last year) and pile up a bunch of clothes and a few cases of beer and head to a buddies camp. Or just drive to a spot where the saw a deer cross the road a month before. Theses are the peole I speak of being lazy. These are the ones who spend 2 maybe 3 days a year hunting and EXPECT a deer for their 20.00 license fee.
Yep there sure are alot of hunters like this try.But we have to admit these guys still give to the pitt-rob fund,organizations involved with conservation,and our general economy.Yes they could do more but the money contributions still help out.
Having said that in my neck of the woods these are the hunters that we've lost or will lose in license revenues.
