That and we have too many tree huggers that won't allow these old stands to be thinned out. So, we let them stand until they rot and fall to the ground and no one benefits from it.
Am I wrong, or do hunters who buy licenses primarily fund the Game Lands? I beleive that here in Pa the purchase of Game Lands and taxes paid to school districts are all on the hunters shoulders. The PGC gets no state monies. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Why in the Heck should the tree huggers have a voice in timber cutting? Let them foot some of the bills before hearing their pathetic grumblings.
