RE: PA hunters, do you support AR?
Big Country,I know I sound cynical & I really don't mean to come off like that.AR are definately a touchy subject all I'm saying is "What ever happened to any deer is a trophy?"Everyone wants to shoot a big buck & I have been fortunate or lucky to do so,under the new Ar only 3 of my bucks are illegal her(4 points on a sde).This is a public herd not a managed game ranch,I think it should be left up to the hunter,the PGC does not "own" the herd.I do not know Alt personally but I have spoken with him at meetings,in Beaver Co.I asked him why not shoot the small bucks & protect the large bucks like they do on managed game ranches,his response & I quote was with his snide little sneaky grin"If I said hunters were allowed to shoot bucks 4 points or smaller,how many licenses do you think we would sell?"I think by selling the huge amount of doe licenses-7000 in Lawrence Co.this year,that Alt & the PGC caved in to the auto insurance companys & the tree farms.Just my opinion.When I was younger I hunted in Forrest Co.I seen herds of deer,now my friends hunt up there & see far less than they did 25 years ago.Just my .02 cents worth.
Gary Alt is a WEASLE in a Human Suit!
