Hunter numbers are going to continue to decline.There's alot of factors that contribute to that and less deer is one of them.I see way less deer than I did 10 years ago but I still more than enough to satisfy me.

I also stand behind my statement that our state game lands have much better habitat than the private land around here.You see,they're constantly doing habitat improvements there and it shows.The state foresthave very poor habitat in most cases and alot less deer as a result.The habitat is so poor in most of these areas thatI couldn't imagine someone wasting their time hunting there.The private land I seeisn't any better than the public land and most of it gets hunted much harder than the public land around here.
