Here's everyone's chance to disprove the other guys opinions.
There's no sense in arguing here and making claims that cannot be proven, right?

Are you sick of it yet?
Well I am, but I'm not ready to say everyone is a liar and one side is completely right or wrong.

Hang on, don't prejudge.

If there is one claim ever made by the USP that I agree with it is the abundant requests they’ve made for accountability of the PGC deer management programs.
(I do not agree that an injunction against all hunters interests is the way to accomplish this)

Let's face it, none of us average hunters are truly versed in "all" of this stuff and we do tend to go on the faith that the professional biologists are honest and capable.
I don't for a minute doubt that, but I can see where others, who had had poor experiences afield may become doubtful.

Let's give them, our hunting brothers and sisters, our support to get to the bottom of this once and for all.
Let's put PGC on the proverbial spot for accountability.

My suggestion is that we co-join in a simple request for funding of a truly independent audit.

We should stay away from controversial entities such as the "Forest Certification Systems" or Audubon or any of the others whose motives have been questioned by either side.

Can we agree that we want an outfit that is recognized and has experience in doing such surveys for other states?
Can we agree that their primary business plan should be to this type of auditing and not some "all things to all people" conservation concern?

I have no fear, but I am willing to accept that the outcome may not please me personally.
Is that too much to ask from all who claim to have the best interest of our hunting heritage at stake?

USP, PFSC, UBP, any hunting org. and all legislators should welcome this if we approach it as truly "united" in wanting it.

I sincerely hope USP decision makers will be willing to say that this is also what they said they want, and to recognize they will get this accomplished a whole lot easier if we join as a team.

Who amongyou will express support for this and accept the findings, whether I like it or not? I will.
