It might sound simple, but I see a Hunter as simply a tool for conservation. We as a group assist in the states conservation efforts and they set the guidlines as to what needs killed in order to better help the herd.

If the state makes it a rule that I can only shoot a 3.5 yr old or older deer, then thats what I would do. If they say I should only shoot does thats what I'd do. I have to think that the sates conservationists know a little more thanjoe blow the hunterabout maintaining a healthy herd.

The rub in the rule making comes whenpeople confuse maintaing a healthy herdand maintaining a healthy state revenue from generated from hunting.......
