RE: A friendly deer camp debate...about PA regs
They ever start {earn a buck program}I'll hunt in another state.
According to many on here there isn't a doe problem anymore on most public land because the habitat is too bad to support them.So hunters really aren't needed on say state forest land because the poor habitat is keeping numbers low already.Am I right?
As for private land there will always be enough family members and such to take out a few does.Most people who hunt deer that own land that I know don't want deer numbers anywhere near as low as public land so they won't use as many tags.
As for SGL's they'll just hand out more tags per person to get the job done.I really don't see that as an issue.I see money {funding}as the problem for the PGC in the future.As the hunter numbers continue to drop I can't see us being able to support the PGC alone.There's plenty of activity within the PGC that's not related to hunting including wildlife complaints so I say let the general public help finance the agency.
