yes, you are right..

being i am out in woods more than most are,like 4 days all year i see and hear things that most dont..

i agree with you on the SGL hunting..
this land has best habitat in world, they do great job at it..
i stop and talk to land managers there all time..
years ago you would hear/see shooting like you described here.

it was NUTS..
i found deer that were not tagged many times because they shot so many by SAME hunter or crew..
it was MEAT hunting.

now, you can go there,you wont see deer.
best HABITAT in world..
same with squirrreals/grouse/rabbits, very few but best HABITAT in world..........

I WONDER WHY?

we hear some on here say,SPROUL IF YOU HAVE GREAT HABITAT YOU WILL HAVE LOTS OF FAWN RECURITEMENT..
1 is even a WCO ...........
he is RIGHT but is DEAD WRONG..........

you will never have anything to hunt if hunters kill fawns and overharvest doe like i am seeing in WMU 2G...

SGL land here in pa is a GREAT example...

here is favorite saying now.........

ITS BROWN ITS DOWN WITH A KIDS TAG..........
IF I DONT SHOOT FAWN ,SOMEONE ELSE WILL.......
I NEED DEER JERKY...........
DEER WILL STRAVE IF I DONT SHOOT ALL OF THEM........

not too many times do i hear this from us hunters,I LET FAWN OR DOE GO SO WE HAVE DEER FOR US AND KIDS FUTURE HUNTING.......
OH, I ONLY BOUGHT DOE TAG TO FEEL GOOD, I DONT USE IT..
SOME are telling truth on that but over HALF ,say that but use tag.................
I DID NOT SHOOT THAT SPIKE BUCK FOR MY KID ,thats great but most shoot the spike if kids are along.......

sadly,some always find way to get around SYSTEM..

without STRICT RULES and WCO checking US, i dont mind have WCO shake me down..
this is going to continue...

this year here in clinton county is first year i saw NO WCO ,none on patrol...
everyone knows this and you can bet lots of violations were commited,i guess you could call it NO FEAR!!!!!!!!!
