RE: any Longislanders notice this?
Don't bother they don't have a clue. They do know that there are too many deer, that is why there are multiple tags and very long seasons to hopefully harvest as many as possible. Long Island also has a buck shooting mentality. There are many nuisance permits issued where the shooters are out there to shoot the big bucks and not to shoot the does so the nuisance problem continues year after year. It is funny every year that the main nuisance shooting activity begins in September when most of the deer have shed their velvet and the bad thing is that by this time most of the crops have been harvested already.
