Is that Right?

I recommend that anyone check facts for themselves, but I have come across a number of articles in Deer and Deer Hunting, American Hunter, as well as a couple other major publications that have stated that the vast majority of B&C whitetails are coming from private lands because of poor practices by hunters and the DNR allowing too many bucks taken every year.
Too many Joes are travelling to ILL thinking that they are going to kill a monster on public ground, but when it looks like they might go home empty they are waxing the next yearling that comes by.
And there's going to be alot more "Joe's" traveling to public land if the land keeps being bought up and outfitted- the public land is too crowded as it is. That's why I think there should be some kind of control over the amount of acreage allowed to be outfitted. Why do you think everyone gets pissed when businesses come in and make them move. Kinda comparable to walmart putting out all the little guys.
