1) leave it as it is.....
I say there is always room to improve and experiment.

2) AR's are the only savior
I don't see that we need a savior. As far as I'm concerned things are going pretty well in NY. Of course, like I said, there's always ways to improve and I would encourage experimenting with ideas. I would however strongly oppose a state wide AR mandate.

3)stronger law enforcement and check in stations would work wonders...
If by stronger law enforcement you mean increase the number of CO's then I am totally against it. The dollars spent for more CO's imo would be much better spent on other much more important issues in NY. It seems to me we have plenty of deer here and it is obvious that the state can very effectively increase the population any time they want just by restricting the doe permits a bit. In fact for quite a few years the problem has been too many deer not too few so again imo I can't see spending money to make sure Joe Blow doesn't use his wifes tags to kill a few more deer than he's entitled to when for example it could be used to help make sure Joe and his buddies aren't driving drunk and maybe save some human lives. When compared to many other issues poaching just isn't a big enough problem. CHeck stations? Again, that means people to man them and money to pay the people. Besides what a pain in the butt!
