Fieldmouse.....Hence the reason I'm posting this and asking the questions I'm asking. If I believed your statement above.......I'd hunt 'em without caring. "I" belive if I can get the numbers in check.....and get the buck/doe ratio in check......"my" herd can be as healthy as any in the state. The state of NC has taken one step towards empowering me. Ball's in my court, now.....I just need to see the game plan the state's got in mind will help me "win".
