Default RE: Can QDM work on public lands??

Can it work YES...... but only if the DNR regulates it and even then you are going to have some problems.
I'm all for QDM on public land, but I still remeber that trophy spiker I took yrs ago. I think a person should be able to take any buck for their first but after that its 8pts or better. I also like the earn a buck theory.
I hunt public land and see crap all the time. One guy that sits on a rd just down from my camp shoots 2 bucks on his property and tags with his wife's tags..... then he goes to public land and shoots 2 more. He's not an archer but hunts both muzzleloader and rifle. He's got some nice bucks...... from the window of his truck. Last yr he tagged one good ten and then 15min later shoots a nice 8pt and calls his brother to come tag it.
I think in my province it would take a lot more work than the provincial CO's are able to do given manpower restrictions. We don't have check stations and I think that would be the best way to regulate deer taken.
What about cull bucks on public land........ anybody have opinions on that????????
